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
-
Start by washing and peeling the potatoes. Slice them thinly with a mandolin (ideally 2mm-thick strips).
-
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.
-
Sprinkle the potato strips with a few grinds of Croquant d'Oignon Rouge Jardin Intense.
-
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).
-
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!
-
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.
-
Serve warm or cold, with a homemade sauce or plain, and enjoy!

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...
