Ingredients

2 pounds russet potatoes
6-8 cups vegetable oil for frying

Garlic Parmesan Seasoning

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried parsley

Cracked Pepper Sea Salt Seasoning

2 tablespoons sea salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Sour Cream and Onion Seasoning

2 tablespoons buttermilk powder
2 tablespoons dried dill
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar

Instructions

Wash potatoes. Thinly slice the potatoes using a mandolin, knife or food processor and as you slice them, add them into a bowl of cold water.
Heat the oil in a heavy duty pan until the oil reaches 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Rinse the starches off the potatoes and drain off all water. Place the potato slices on a towel and dry thoroughly.
Working in batches, place a handful of the slices safely into the oil and fry. Do so by lowering the potatoes into the oil with a metal slotted spoon.
Once they have turned a golden color, about 60-90 seconds, remove from oil and place onto a paper-towel lined cookie sheet.
Season immediately while the chips and oil are still hot to ensure as much sticking of the seasonings as possible. Enjoy!

Seasonings

Combine all ingredients for desired seasoning into a bowl and stir until well combined.

Notes

The larger the batch of chips that go in the oil, the longer it will take to cook. Smaller batches work better.
