Instructions

1. Peel the sweet potatoes and slice them very thinly, about 1 to 1.5 mm thick, using a mandoline with its guard.
2. Rinse the slices in a large bowl of cold water several times until the water runs clear.
3. Lay the slices on paper towels and blot dry. A salad spinner can be used first.
4. Heat the oil in a deep pot to 325°F (165°C).
5. Add a batch of slices to the hot oil, without overcrowding the pot.
6. Fry for 7 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the bubbling slows and the oil sounds quieter.
7. Remove the chips just before they look too brown, as they will darken a little more after frying.
8. Drain on a strainer or wire rack and season immediately with salt, shaking gently to coat.
9. Let the chips cool completely so they crisp up, then fry the remaining slices in batches.
