How to make sour cream and onion and chip
To make sour cream and onion chips at home, you will need the following ingredients and steps:
Ingredients:
- Potatoes
- Sour cream
- Onion powder
- Salt
- Vegetable oil for frying
Steps:
1. Peel the potatoes and wash them thoroughly to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
2. Using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer, slice the potatoes into thin, even rounds. You can also use a potato chip slicer if you have one.
3. Once you have sliced all the potatoes, fill a large bowl with cold water and place the potato slices in it. Let them soak for about 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
4. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the sour cream, onion powder, and salt. Adjust the amount of onion powder to your preference, starting with about 1-2 teaspoons. Set aside.
5. After soaking, drain the potato slices and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
6. In a large, deep pan or a deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to about 350°F (175°C).
7. Carefully drop small batches of potato slices into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry the chips until golden brown and crispy, which should take about 3-4 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even frying.
8. Once the chips are done, remove them from the oil using a slotted spoon or tongs and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
9. While the chips are still hot, sprinkle them with the sour cream and onion mixture. Make sure to coat the chips evenly to achieve a strong flavor.
10. Repeat the frying and seasoning process with the remaining potato slices until all chips are made.
11. Allow the chips to cool completely before serving, as they will become crunchier as they cool.
