Directions:
-
Preheat oven: Start by preheating your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (232 degrees Celsius), ensuring it reaches the optimal temperature for crisping up the potatoes.
-
Soak potatoes: Prepare the potatoes by soaking them in ice-cold water for 5 minutes. This step helps remove excess starch, resulting in crispier potato slices.
-
Drain and dry: After soaking, drain the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Removing excess moisture ensures the potatoes crisp up evenly in the oven.
-
Prepare spice mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil with the turmeric, cumin, ground coriander, and cayenne. This aromatic spice blend will infuse the potatoes with rich flavors and vibrant colors.
-
Coat potatoes: Add the drained and dried potato slices to the spice mixture, tossing them gently to ensure they are evenly coated with the fragrant spices and oil.
-
Arrange on baking sheet: Arrange the seasoned potato slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Make sure the slices are not overlapping to ensure even cooking.
-
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the potatoes for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
-
Flip and bake: Carefully flip the potato slices over using a spatula, then return the baking sheet to the oven for another 20-25 minutes. This additional baking time ensures both sides of the potatoes are perfectly crisp and golden.
-
Season and serve: Once the potato crisps are cooked to perfection, remove them from the oven and sprinkle them with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Serve immediately as a delicious snack or appetizer.
These Spiced Potato Crisps are sure to be a hit with family and friends, offering a healthier alternative to store-bought potato chips while delivering irresistible flavor and crunch. Enjoy the satisfying experience of homemade potato crisps seasoned to perfection! 🥔🌶️
