INGREDIENTS:
3–4 medium potatoes (Yukon Gold or red potatoes work best)
2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp paprika (optional, for color)
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
2 tbsp grated Parmesan or cheddar cheese (optional)
Optional: chili flakes, rosemary, thyme, or za’atar for variation
Dipping sauce: garlic mayo, sour cream, or yogurt-herb dip
INSTRUCTIONS:
Prep the Potatoes:
Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly.
Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice them into thin rounds (about ⅛ inch thick).
Place slices in a bowl of cold water for 10 minutes to remove excess starch—this helps them crisp up.
Drain and pat dry with a clean towel.
Season the Slices:
In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil or melted butter.
Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and any optional herbs or spices.
Mix gently to coat each slice evenly.
Arrange & Roast:
Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F).
Line a baking tray with parchment paper or lightly grease a round baking dish.
Arrange the slices in overlapping concentric circles, starting from the outer edge and working inward.
Sprinkle with grated cheese if using.
Bake to Perfection:
Roast for 30–40 minutes, or until the edges are crisp and golden and the centers are tender.
If needed, broil for 2–3 minutes at the end for extra crispness—watch closely to avoid burning.
Garnish & Serve:
Sprinkle with chopped parsley and a pinch of coarse salt.
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce
