Sweet potato chips with rosemary

Sweet potato chips are such a treat! I can't even believe it took us so long to make it at home. The ingredient list is simple, and the process is incredibly easy. It takes about 40 minutes from start to finish to make homemade potato chips, and the result will be crunchy, delicious, and just perfect. Serve it as a snack or invite some friends over for movie night to devour in this crispy, salty deliciousness.

Ingredients

sweet potato chips

3 sweet potatoes, medium

400 ml vegetable oil, for frying

3 tbsp sea salt

1 sprig of rosemary, fresh

Tools and equipment

mandolin / sharp knife

cast iron pan / deep frying pan

paper towels

baking sheet

pestle and mortar

METHOD

Slice the potatoes

Clean and dry your sweet potatoes, then slice them as thinly as possible. If you have a mandolin, use it.
Fry

Preheat the oven to 120 °C / 250 °F. Place a cast-iron pan (or any other heavy-bottom cooking pan) over high heat. Pour in the vegetable oil and heat until the oil reaches 175 °C / 350 °F. Add the thinly sliced sweet potatoes (use an aluminum basket for frying if you have it). Fry for about 2 - 3 minutes. Remove the chips from the oil and transfer them on a paper towel-lined baking sheet.

Tip

It's important to regularly shake the pan the first minute to assure the crispiness.
Bake

Replace the kitchen towels with the new ones and place the baking sheet into the oven. Bake for 8 - 10 minutes at 120 °C / 250 °F.
Serve

Using a pestle and mortar smash the sprigs of rosemary and sea salt. Sprinkle the rosemary salt all over the sweet potato chips and enjoy.
