Herb Silhouette Potato Chips
Potatoes what an amazing food. When you're homesick what do you
think of mashed potatoes? When you order a burger what do you
order to go with it French fried potatoes. Finally when you go
out for a hearty juicy steak what comes along side, a baked
potato.
Herb silhouette potato chips are a grown up version of the
traditional potato chip. These paper thin potato chips are an
attractive gourmet way to serve potatoes. You will be able to
see a silhouette of your favorite herb inside each potato chip.
Potatoes, one per person
Fresh herbs of choice
Peel and slice very thin the potatoes. (Yukon Gold is always a
good choice of potato.) Grease a baking sheet and lay a single
layer of chips on the cookie sheet. Lay one sprig of herb on
each chip
and lay a second chip on top of the herb. Press down
to flatten the herb.
Generously spray a sheet of parchment paper with non-stick
cooking spray. Cover the potatoes with the parchment paper and
lay a second cookie sheet on top. This will way down the chips.
Bake at 400 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes. Serve warm or cool the
potatoes on paper towels.
