You only need 3 ingredients for this Thin, crispy, sweet potato chips.

📝 Ingredients

  • 4 medium white sweet potatoes ((see Note 1 for the best potato to use))
  • Canola oil
  • Salt

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Peel the sweet potatoes, then slice them very thinly using a mandoline, about 1 to 1.5 mm thick.
  2. 2Transfer the slices to a large bowl of cold water. Rinse several times until the water runs clear.
  3. 3Lay the slices on paper towels, then blot dry with more paper towels. You can also use a salad spinner first, then pat dry.
  4. 4Heat the oil in a deep pot to 325°F (165°C).
  5. 5Add a batch of sweet potato slices to the hot oil.
  6. 6Fry for 7 to 10 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  7. 7Remove the chips just before they get too brown, as they will continue to darken slightly after frying.
  8. 8Transfer to a strainer or wire rack, then season immediately with salt. Shake gently to coat.
  9. 9Let the chips cool completely so they crisp up, then repeat with the remaining slices.
