Homemade Microwave Chips

Description

Perfect with meals and drinks. If you have children, you're probably also worried about a very relevant problem—kids love junk food, and chips in particular. The chips sold in supermarkets are downright poison. What to do? I suggest not punishing the children, but simply getting them used to making homemade chips. Homemade chips, of course, are hardly a healthy snack either, but of two evils, it's better to choose the lesser one. Fortunately, making homemade chips in the microwave is very easy.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Step 1

    Thinly slice the potatoes.

  2. 2

    Step 2

    Step 2

    Soak the sliced potatoes in cold water for 15–20 minutes to remove all the starch.

  3. 3

    Step 3

    Step 3

    Then dry the potatoes using a kitchen towel.

  4. 4

    Step 4

    Step 4

    Sprinkle the dried potatoes with desired spices.

  5. 5

    Step 5

    Step 5

    Make the chips in small batches in the microwave, for about 3 minutes on the highest power setting.

  6. 6

    Step 6

    Step 6

    Then flip it over, reduce the temperature by half, and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

  7. 7

    Step 7

    Step 7

    Prepare all the remaining chips the same way. As soon as the chips start to develop a brown crust, remove them from the microwave right away; otherwise they'll dry out too much and won't taste good.

    Step 8

    Potato chips are ready!
