Ingredients

Directions

  1. Peel the potatoes and slice them very thin using a potato slicer if possible.

  3. Cover the slices with fresh water and place a lump of ice on top. Let them stand for an hour.

  4. Drain the potatoes in a colander and wipe them dry with a towel.

  5. Fry the potatoes in boiling fat, being careful not to overcrowd the basket.

  6. Fry until brown and crisp, then drain on paper.

  7. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt and serve.
