Movie Munchies -- Veggie Chips |
|
Let’s say you invite some friends over the watch a video. You just
know you’re going to want to have some snacks ready. These vegetable
chips are delicious and just as easy to make as the traditional
potato variety. Make lots and enjoy!
Ingredients:
Whatever types of root vegetable you enjoy. Just remember, the less
water content in the vegetable, the quicker it will cook. We used
Jamaican sweet potatoes, regular sweet potatoes, plantain, cassavas
and turnips. Some of the more exotic vegetables may be seasonal;
sometimes you can purchase them at a specialty fruit stand. Peel
and slice these vegetables as you would a potato.
Heat canola oil (or any other vegetable oil) in a pot to high, then
reduce to a medium-high setting. Add the chips one to prevent them
from sticking together. Let the slices fry until they turn a golden
colour then transfer them to a paper towel. Season with a bit of
salt. If you wish to be more adventurous, add Cajun spices or fresh
herbs.
