Prepare the Potatoes:

Wash and peel the potatoes (optional, depending on your preference). Use a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife to cut the potatoes into thin, even slices—about 1/16 inch thick.

Soak the Slices:

Place the potato slices in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for 20–30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch, resulting in crispier chips.

Dry the Slices:

Drain the potato slices and pat them dry thoroughly with paper towels. Any excess moisture can prevent them from crisping up properly.

Season the Slices:

In a mixing bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil to coat evenly. Add salt and any additional seasonings of your choice.

Preheat the Air Fryer:

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3–5 minutes.

Air Fry the Chips:

Arrange the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overlap for even cooking.

Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 8–12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy. Watch closely during the last few minutes to avoid burning.

Cool and Serve:

Remove the chips from the air fryer and let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes. This helps them crisp up even more. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for later.
