Easy Recipe for Homemade Crispy Potato Chips and Roasted Vegetables
Utilizing everyday ingredients like potatoes and fresh vegetables, we’ll explore a healthy way to enjoy oven-roasted vegetables and freshly made potato chips. Perfect for a satisfying breakfast or a simple snack.
Vegetable Roast Ingredients
- 2 potatoes
- 1/2 bell pepper
- 1/3 zucchini
Seasoning & Roasting
- 3-4 Tbsp cooking oil
- Pinch of salt
- 3-4 Tbsp cooking oil
- Pinch of salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
1) Prepare for Vegetable Roast: Peel the potatoes, and then slice them, along with the bell pepper and zucchini, into thin rounds about 0.2-0.3cm thick. Slicing them thinly will ensure they cook faster and have a better texture.
Step 2
Evenly coat the bottom of an oven pan with 1-2 Tbsp of cooking oil. Arrange the sliced vegetables and potatoes in a single layer without overlapping. Lightly sprinkle with salt to season.
Step 3
Place the pan in an oven preheated to 190°C (375°F) and roast for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, carefully remove the pan, flip the vegetables over, and roast for another 15 minutes, for a total of approximately 30 minutes. Roast until the vegetables are tender and have a nice golden-brown color.
Step 4
Arrange the beautifully roasted vegetables on a plate. You can serve them with your favorite dipping sauces like soy sauce or balsamic dressing, or enjoy them as they are for a simple, delicious taste. Adding a drizzle of homemade mulberry syrup on top creates a refreshing element, making it an excellent breakfast salad or light meal.
Step 5
2) Make Potato Chips: Peel one potato and slice it as thinly as possible. Using a mandoline or a sharp knife will help achieve uniform thin slices. Soak the thinly sliced potatoes in cold water for about 10 minutes to remove excess starch, which will help them become crispier.
Step 6
Drain the potatoes from the cold water and place them in a colander to remove any excess moisture. Pat them thoroughly dry with paper towels; this step is crucial for achieving crispiness and reducing baking time.
Step 7
Lightly brush the oven pan with cooking oil, ensuring the entire surface is coated. Arrange the dried potato slices in a single layer without overlapping. Sprinkle lightly with salt, then bake in a preheated oven at 190°C (375°F) for about 15 minutes.
Step 8
After 15 minutes, flip the potato slices and bake for another 15 minutes at 190°C (375°F). Once they are golden brown and crispy, they are ready. Arrange them nicely on a plate. These homemade potato chips are a healthier and delicious alternative to fried versions.
