Air Fryer Potato Chips Recipe
Description
The recipe begins with slicing medium yellow potatoes thinly using a mandolin or knife, then soaking them in cold water for at least 20 minutes. This soaking step removes excess starch, which can cause sogginess. After draining, the potato slices are thoroughly dried with paper towels to enhance crispness.
Seasoned with oil and salt, the slices are cooked in two batches in the air fryer: initially at 200°F for 20 minutes to cook through, then tossed and returned at 400°F for 5 minutes to crisp the edges. This staged cooking imparts a balanced texture with a tender center and crisp exterior, mimicking traditional fried chips without the oil immersion.

Instructions
- Cut potatoes into thin slices using a mandolin slicer or a sharp knife. Place potatoes into a bowl with cold water and soak them for at least 20 minutes.
- Drain potatoes of water using a colander. Thoroughly pat them dry using paper towels. The more moisture you remove, the crispier they will get.
- Season the potato chips with sea salt and olive oil. Place two layers of potatoes in the air fryer tray and cook for 20 minutes at 200°F.
- Toss the potato chips. Turn up the heat to 400°F and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
