Paprika Chips With Roasted Garlic-Cumin Aioli
- 2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 4 x 1/2 x 1/2 inch sticks
- 2 tablespoons Spice Islands Mediterranean Sea Salt
- 1-1/2 tablespoons Spice Islands Smoked Paprika
- 2 teaspoons Spice Islands Onion Powder
- 1 teaspoon Spice Islands Ground Mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon Spice Islands Garlic Pepper
- 2 quarts peanut oil
- Roasted Garlic-Cumin Aioli:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 6 garlic cloves, roasted
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Spice Islands Ground Cumin Seed
- 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
- 3/4 teaspoon Spice Islands Ground White Pepper
- Place cut potatoes in a large bowl and submerge in cold water for 30 minutes.
- While the potatoes soak, mix together the salt, paprika, onion powder, ground mustard, and garlic pepper in a small bowl until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
- Place the oil in a deep fryer or a 5-quart pot and preheat to 350u0b0F.
- Drain the potatoes and spread them in a single layer on two baking sheets, lined with paper towels.
- Place paper towels over the potatoes and gently press to remove any excess water.
- In batches, blanch the potatoes for 2-3 minutes and drain onto paper towels.
- Once all the potatoes have been blanched, set aside and bring the temperature of the oil up to 365u0b0F.
- Place all the aioli ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth.
- Transfer to a small bowl, adjust seasonings and cover until ready to use.
- In batches, fry the blanched potatoes for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown, carefully stirring to prevent sticking.
- Drain onto paper towels and sprinkle liberally with the paprika seasoning blend. Gently toss until well combined.
- Serve hot with a side of the aioli for dipping.
