Notes
- Use a mandolin on lowest setting (1) or a sharp knife to slice potatoes into very thin rounds for best results.
- This step is important to remove the excess starch in potatoes which helps in air frying them into crispy chips.
- Till the time you use them, keep sliced potatoes soaked in water, drain, dry & then use or else they turn brown.
