Ingredients
  

Chips
  • 3 potatoes peeled
  • cheese enough for a thin layer; our video uses crumbled white cheese
Seasoning
  • garlic powder to taste
  • chili powder to taste
  • cumin powder to taste
  • other seasonings optional, to taste

Method
 

  1. Peel 3 potatoes.
  2. Shave them into thin, even slices on a slicer or mandoline.
  3. Rinse the slices under running water to wash off the starch.
  4. Blanch the slices briefly in boiling water, then drain them well.
  5. Line a baking tray with baking paper and spread a layer of cheese over it.
  6. Lay one layer of potato slices over the cheese, edges just touching or slightly overlapping.
  7. Sprinkle garlic powder, chili powder, cumin powder and any other seasonings you like over the top.
  8. Bake at 140°C (about 285°F) for 15 minutes, until the cheese underneath is golden and crisp at the edges.
  9. Lift the sheet out, let it firm up for a minute, then break it into pieces and serve.

Notes

All steps, the temperature and the time come from our video. The video says 140 degrees without a unit; that is Celsius (about 285°F). It gives no amount for the cheese or the spices and no blanching time, so none are given here. It is baked on a tray in a countertop air fryer oven; air fryers vary, so check near the end. The 15 minutes prep is our estimate.
