Directions
Barbecue Sweet Potato Chips,I’m not a big fan of fried foods, but I do love sweet potatoes and this recipe caught my eye. For a treat, try it! Slice the sweet potatoes as thinly as possible to decrease fry time and increase crispness. Slicing the sweet potatoes with a mandoline makes for wafer-thin and uniform rounds. But you can also use a chef’s knife to slice the potatoes. Adapted from Serious Eats. I believe they got this from Marvin Gapultos who is the author of the Filipino food blog, Burnt Lumpia.,March 20, 2013: Wow… what a great spice recipe for home-made chips. I can see how this can be altered to your personal preference. I actually added a tad too much of cayenne, but that’s okay. Still it was fantastic. used 2 different mandolins (one regular thin cut and one that makes rippled chips), and both turned out perfectly. I also used 2 different potatoes (one sweet potato and one russet). Also, both were just fine. Thanks for posting this recipe. (Made for “New Kids on the Block” tag game – Spring 2013). UPDATED May 11, 2013: I made these again last night to serve with some grilled rib eye steak sandwiches. This time I left out the brown sugar and added a touch more garlic powder, and they were just as good as the first time. This is such a versatile recipe, and I plan to use the instructions and seasonings many more times to come. Thanks again, Sharon.
