Ingredients needed to make snacks
If you have never made chips from potato peels, then definitely try it once. Because you can make this very tasty snack at home also. For this you just need two to three cups of thick peeled potatoes, oil, salt, chaat masala and red chili powder.
Correct way to prepare peels
The most important task for making chips is to clean the potatoes properly. Because potatoes grow underground, there is a lot of soil on them. Before peeling the potatoes, scrub them in clean water and wash them thoroughly 2 to 3 times. When all the soil is cleaned, then remove some thick peels with the help of a knife. After removing the peels, wash them once more with clean water. Now leave them to dry on a cotton cloth. Because it is very important to dry out all the water from the peels. If there is even a little moisture or wetness in the peels, the chips will not become crunchy.

Method of preparation
Now heat oil in the pan on medium flame. Now put a few peels in the oil and keep frying until they turn golden. Keep in mind that it takes only 2 to 3 minutes to cook. If you want to reduce the use of oil, then apply one spoon of oil and spices on the peels and keep them in the air fryer at 200 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. As soon as your potato peels become crunchy and ready, take them out. Now immediately sprinkle salt, red chili powder and chaat masala over the hot chips. If you want, you can also add a little Maggi masala to it. Because this doubles the taste. Now mix all this well. Now your hot, crispy potato peel chips are ready. You can eat these with hot evening tea or tomato ketchup.
