Silver Dollar Potatoes

Silver Dollar Potatoes

5 Pounds of Russet Potatoes

1 Gallon Peanut Oil (or similar)

Deep Fryer - I use a Presto double basket model

Seasoning - I use coarsely ground sea salt

• Scrub the potatoes well.
• Slice the potatoes into 1/8 -1/4 thick pieces.
• Place the potato slices in ice cold water for about 5 minutes. Then pat dry.
• Pour the oil into the deep fryer and heat on high until sizzling.
• Put the potatoes in the fryer basket. Do not overcrowd the basket.
• Fry until the potatoes are golden brown- the thinner slices will be crispier and the thicker slices will be more tender.
• Drain on paper towels.

Season and enjoy. I like them best with just sea salt.
