Material selection and preparation

Choose fresh sweet potatoes with uniform skin color, no spots and no rot. Clean the sweet potato, peel it and cut it into thin slices with a thickness of about 2-3 mm. In order to make the sweet potato slices more crisp, you can sprinkle a little salt on the cut sweet potato slices, marinate them for 15-20 minutes, and then use a kitchen paper towel to absorb the water.

roast

Preheat the oven to 180℃. Spread tin foil on the baking tray, and spread the pickled sweet potato slices evenly on the tin foil. In order to avoid the adhesion of sweet potato slices, a little gap can be left between sweet potato slices. Put the baking tray in the preheated oven and bake 15-20 minutes until the edge of the sweet potato slices appears golden yellow, then take it out.

deep-fry

If you prefer crispy taste, you can also choose fried sweet potato chips. Pour an appropriate amount of oil into the pot and heat it to about 170℃. Fry sweet potato slices in a pot with low fire until the sweet potato slices float and the surface is golden yellow. Take out and drain the oil.

Other cooking methods

Besides baking and frying, other cooking methods can also be used to make sweet potato chips. For example, using an air fryer, put the sweet potato slices into the air fryer and bake them at 180℃ for10-0/5 minutes until the sweet potato slices become brittle. Or, use a microwave oven, put the sweet potato slices in the microwave oven, heat them for 5- 10 minutes, and turn them every 2 minutes after taking them out until the sweet potato slices become dry and brittle.

Seasoning and enjoying

Sweet potato chips can be added with different seasonings according to personal preference, such as salt, pepper, Chili powder, cumin powder and so on. You can also add honey, maple syrup or ketchup to the sweet potato slices to enhance the flavor. Crispy and delicious sweet potato chips, whether as snacks, side dishes or dinner, are memorable.

skill

In order to make the sweet potato chips more uniform and crisp, corn starch can be used to wrap the sweet potato chips before baking or frying.

If you like soft sweet potato chips, you can shorten the time slightly when baking or frying.

Sweet potato chips can be sealed and stored in a cool and dry place, and the shelf life is about 1 week.
