the adventures of little potato chip girl

We bought ourselves an awesome ceramic mandolin slicer and decided to make some potato chips seasoned with fresh thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper to go with dinner tonight. Our first batch stuck onto the aluminum foil, our second batch was good, our last batch, we burnt.

So here's what we learnt ... to make an edible and delicious batch of potato chips, you need to make sure all your chips AND the cookie sheet are well greased. You also have to keep an eye on the oven as the chips are baking so you can remove them once they start turning golden brown. Our chips were cut paper thin, so 10-12 minutes in a 400F oven was just about right. Once your chips are done, remove and cool them on a sheet of parchment paper for 5 minutes before chowing down.

We found little potato chip girl in the second batch of chips. I think she is perfect with her pretty hair, thyme eyes, pepper nose and lipsticked mouth! :)
