Baked or Air Fryer Potato Chips

Potato chips are a crunchy and delicious snack, perfect for enjoying during an aperitif or while snacking in front of the TV. Making these chips is very easy: simply slice the potatoes thinly, soak them in water to remove the starch, and then cook them. For a healthier snack, instead of frying, I recommend baking them or using an air fryer: they will be crispy and tasty and will disappear in no time!

  • Once cooked, the chips will be ready to enjoy. Enjoy!
