Fried Potatoes

So this one is pretty self-explanatory and not very complex, but it was a first for me so I had to share.

Ingredients

Potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced

oil

salt (You could also try other salts, like Lawry's or other multi-purpose seasonings)

At first I thought I would try using my cheese slicer to slice my potatoes, hoping it would make them more uniform in thickness. It didn't work. And they would've been too thick anyhow. So I ended up using a knife, which was far more effective and I was able to make them quite thin.

I heated some oil in my pan (a nice layer) and added a layer of potato slices.  I just had to guess as to when they were done, and eventually you'll figure out what they look like when they're about finished.  After taking them out, I put them on a plate with paper towels on it and sprinkled them with salt.

I was pretty darn amazed that the really nicely sliced ones that were thin tasted exactly like Lays potato chips. No kidding. It took a while. I'm sure it would go much faster with a deep fryer, or something like that. I was just trying to figure out more ways to eat potatoes, since we're not big potato people. It was fun, and we all really enjoyed them.
