Microwave Potato Chips

Preparation time: 5 minutes

Cooking time: 15 minutes or so

  • 1 large potato, washed
  • Oil (I used between 1-2 tablespoons)
  • Whatever seasoning you like (salt, salt and pepper, salt and vinegar, nori powder)

Step 1 - Peel the potato and then mandolin it as thinly as you would like. The thinnest setting produces thins and the next thinnest setting produces crunchy but thicker chips. Drizzle some oil on top and coat each chip lightly in oil (you don't have to get too exact and coat every piece). Brush a microwave proof plate with oil and place on the plate and microwave for 2 minutes if they are really thin or 4-5 minutes if they are thicker. Microwaves do vary so it's best to check to see how they are going.

Okay these look terrible but trust me...

Step 2 - Using an oven mitt (the plate will be hot) remove from the microwave and then using an angled spatula or butter knife, remove them from the plate. Allow to cool. Repeat with the remaining potato slices.
