Potato chips come in a wide variety of flavors, from cheese, barbecue, sour cream, or just plain salted.
They are crispy, and savory and will make you crave more.
But have you ever tried making your own potato chips? A version that is healthier, crispier, and more flavorful?
Homemade chips are delicious.
You might think that it’s easier to just open a bag of store-bought chips, but making your own chips gives you a unique sense of fulfillment.
Not to mention the satisfaction of making that perfectly crisp snack that you love.
Just two weeks ago, the YouTube Channel 쿠킹하루 Cooking Haru :) posted an easy-to-follow recipe for super crispy, not fried, garlic potato chips.
With a side of garlic cheese sauce, of course.
It’s a simple recipe.
Most of us would not dare play with our food, but this channel’s host does, and it gives his videos a different, cool, and fun vibe.
If you’re excited to indulge in crispy chips, then let’s start.
Here’s what you’ll need:
For the chips:
- 1 and 1/3 lb or 600 grams of potatoes
- 1 tsp. of minced garlic
- 2/3 tsp. of oregano
- 1 tsp. of salt
- Pepper
- 1/4 cup or 60 ml of water
For the sauce:
- 1 tsp or 5 grams of butter
- 1 tsp. of minced garlic
- 2.5 tsp. of milk
- 1/2 tbsp. of sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup or 35 grams of cheddar cheese
Once you have prepared all your ingredients, it’s time to make these lovely crisps.
How to make:
- Get your potatoes, peel them and then wash them.
- Dice your potatoes and put them in a bowl. Add water and cover.
- Microwave for 7 to 8 minutes.
- After half the time had passed, open the lid and mix your potatoes.
- Once done, make sure that the potatoes are cooked all the way through.
- Mash them.
- Press mashed potatoes through sieve to remove lumps
This can take time, so be patient.
You’ll know it’s ready if it’s as smooth as butter. Then, it’s time to season.
- Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.
For this recipe, the host divided the mashed potatoes in two.
- Put the first part of the potatoes in a piping bag. You can also use a zip lock.
- Then, on a tray lined with parchment paper, squeeze potatoes into 2cm balls.
- Flatten them and set them aside.
- For the other half add garlic and oregano. You can add more or less, depending on your taste. Mix well.
- Repeat the process and put the mashed potato in a piping bag, squeeze them on a separate tray, and flatten them.
- Bake it in the oven for 8 – 10 minutes at 355°F.
The crispy test
- Take them out once done, test for crispiness, but control yourself. We still need to create the dip.
- In a bowl, mix in your butter, garlic, and warm milk.
- Once done, add cheese and microwave 40 seconds. Mix well.
That’s it. All you have to do is plate the chips and the dip. Choose a movie and serve.
