Sage Potato Chips
- 3 large russet potatoes
- 3 cups flavorless oil, such as canola or vegetable
- handful chopped fresh sage
- 1 tablespoon sea salt
- Heat a heavy pot filled with oil to 350 degrees. Using a mandolin, slice potatoes lengthwise into pieces less than 1/8 inch thick. Place potato slices on a surface covered in a paper towel to absorb dampness.
- Chop sage and set aside. Assemble a large baking sheet covered in a paper towel to place fried chips. Once oil is at 350, drop potato slices in batches of 4-8 (depending on size of slices) into pot using a pair of metal tongs. After 20 seconds, flip once, and allow to cook til crisp, about 30 seconds more. Place on paper towel-lined baking sheet, sprinkle with salt. Repeat until all slices are fried.
- Once chips are done and lightly salted, drop your sage into the oil for 5-10 seconds, or until crisp, and remove with a slotted spoon. Place fried sage in a small bowl, salt generously, and crumble between your fingers. Sprinkle over the potato chips and serve.
