Crispy, golden fries are popular in many countries. This snack is often consumed while watching a movie or favorite TV series. There are a large number of recipes for preparing vegetables in this form. We’ll prepare one of them – a multi-layered crispy potato snack – today.
Required:
- 1 kilogram of potatoes;
- 2 tbsp. spoons of potato starch;
- 1/2 tsp each fine salt, ground pepper, chili;
- 2 tbsp. spoons of any vegetable oil;
- 1 liter of oil for frying.
Prepare a crispy potato snack:
Rinse the potatoes in clean water, dry and peel. Then grate into thin slices. Transfer the workpiece into a deep container.
Add black pepper and chili, salt, potato starch and oil to the potato slices.
Mix the ingredients together thoroughly in a bowl. To prevent spices and oil from sticking to your hands, you can wear gloves. As a result, the potatoes will be soaked in the sauce and become soft.
Line a baking pan with one layer of parchment paper and place potato slices on top of it in layers.
Cover the contents with parchment and place in the oven.Bake potato slices at 230 degrees C for one hour.
When the appetizer is cooked, remove it from the oven and press down so that the thin potato pieces stick together. To do this, you can use a press with a light weight.
In this position, leave the potatoes on the table at room temperature. After three hours, the snack will completely cool down. Then turn the pan upside down and remove the potato snack from it. Using a sharp knife, cut the resulting potato loaf into thin pieces no more than two centimeters thick.
Pour vegetable oil into a deep saucepan, place on the stove and heat. Drop the potato pieces into the pan one at a time and fry in oil for 15 minutes.
Using bamboo sticks or a slotted spoon, remove the potato pieces and blot off excess oil with tissue paper.
Place the roasted potatoes on a flat serving plate and serve. You can prepare sour cream or cheese sauce for the appetizer, and it will become even tastier. Turn on your favorite movie and crunch!
