Jardin croquant d'oignon rouge

Idéal avec Crunchy red onion

Ingredients

  • 4 grosses pommes de terre (type pommes de terre Charlotte),
  • Huile de tournesol ou d’olive pour le four ou la friture,
  • Fleur de sel (sel de Guérande),
  • Croquant d’oignon rouge Jardin Intense,
  • Poivre,
  • Herbes séchées et paprika pour parfumer.

Preparation

  1. Start by washing and peeling the potatoes. Slice them thinly with a mandolin (ideally 2mm-thick strips).

  2. Soak the potato slices in a bowl of cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and dry carefully in a clean cloth.

  3. Sprinkle the potato strips with a few grinds of Croquant d'Oignon Rouge Jardin Intense.

  4. If you choose to cook your homemade potato chips in a deep fryer: heat the oil to 160-170°C. Fry the potato slices in small batches until golden brown and crisp (2-3 minutes).

  5. If you choose to bake your homemade potato chips in the oven, place the potato strips on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with pepper, spices and herbs of your choice. Bake at 140°c for around 40 minutes (turning over halfway through). Keep an eye on them, as some slices of homemade chips may cook faster than others, depending on their thickness!

  6. Drain the homemade chips on paper towels until completely dry. Taste and adjust if necessary, sprinkling the chips with a few grinds of Jardin Intense Red Onion Crunch and the spices of your choice for a spicy kick.

  7. Serve warm or cold, with a homemade sauce or plain, and enjoy!

  8. Chips are excellent as an aperitif with sauces, vegetable sticks and a few anchovies, but can also accompany a seasonal vegetable soup to vary the texture and add crunch, as well as giving a spicy, crunchy edge to many vegetable or meat recipes. The recipe for potato potato chips can easily be adapted to vegetable recipes: you can make potato potato chips, but also carrot potato chips, zucchini potato chips, beet potato chips...
