Ingredients

  • 1 white potato
  • 1 purple sweet potato
  • 1 orange sweet potato
  • Salt
  • Olive oil for shallow frying

Instructions

  • Slice the white potato, purple sweet potato, and orange sweet potato into fries. Make sure the pieces are similar in size so they cook evenly.
  • Pour olive oil into a large pan—enough to shallow fry the chips—and place the sliced potatoes directly into the cold oil. This method helps them cook through gently and evenly.
  • Bring the oil up to temperature slowly. This allows the fries to steam and soften inside before the oil gets hot enough to crisp the outsides.
  • Once golden and crispy, remove the chips from the oil and drain them on paper towel. While they’re still hot, sprinkle generously with salt and serve.
