Chips in the microwave in 5 minutes

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 15 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make chips in the microwave? Prepare everything you need for this. If you use new potatoes, there is no need to peel them. You can simply wash it thoroughly in running water with a brush. I peeled the potatoes.

2. STEP 2

   

   Cut the peeled potatoes into very thin slices, approximately 1-2 mm thick. To do this, you can use a vegetable slicer or a sharp knife. Place the cut potatoes in water to remove excess starch.

3. STEP 3

   

   Then place the potato slices on a paper towel folded in 2-3 layers, and cover with another layer on top to thoroughly remove all excess moisture from the potatoes.

4. STEP 4

   

   Brush potato slices with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and spices. You can choose spices to your taste. I use paprika.

5. STEP 5

   

   To prepare chips, it is convenient to use a plate from the microwave oven itself. It is flat and quite large in size. But you can use any other one that is suitable for the microwave. Place a sheet of paper towel on a plate and place the potato slices on it. Microwave at maximum power (usually 750-800 watts) for 3 minutes. Then turn the slices over and leave for another 2-3 minutes.

6. STEP 6

   

   The finished chips will turn golden brown. Transfer them to another plate and enjoy! They are very tasty and crispy!

7. STEP 7

   

   You can top the chips with any sauce you like. I really like sour cream sauce with herbs and garlic. You can store these chips for 2-3 days in an airtight container. Enjoy your meal!

I didn't cook it in the microwave. Potato chips can also be cooked in the oven.

While I was preparing the potato casserole, I remembered that I had a recipe for microwave potato chips in my bookmarks. I saved similar recipes when our gas was turned off for several days) It’s very convenient that there are such options. I just cut the potatoes into thin petals. I decided to prepare myself a snack at the same time) I washed the potato slices, dried them and laid them out on a paper towel, placing them on a large plate. Unfortunately there was no olive oil. It would be much tastier with it. I also used paprika as a spice, I love it very much, it makes it delicious and beautiful. I also sprinkled salt. Six minutes at 750 watts. My potatoes didn’t have enough, I added another minute after turning them over. By the way, you definitely need to watch the cooking in the last minutes, as the middle may burn, this happened to me with crackers. Right out of the microwave, the potato slices seemed soft, but literally within a minute they became crispy. The chips turned out to be very tasty. Crispy, rosy, and most importantly, quick and easy. Plus, I had a great snack while I was cooking dinner) I ate them with homemade ketchup. Great recipe, thanks!

Interesting, they turned out smooth, not with curled ends, and they look like store-bought ones in appearance, but how do they taste - the same whole with a potato taste? Click yourself like seeds, the method is simple and convenient)))

Of course it will work out, but don’t resort to such food very often, all the excess fat accumulates in the sides unnoticed)))
