Description
Crispy, tangy, and perfectly seasoned potato chips with a bold ketchup flavor—a true Canadian snack classic!
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 large russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons tomato powder (or ketchup powder)
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar powder (optional, for extra tang)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for spice)
Instructions
-
Preheat & Prep:
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Slice & Soak:
- Wash and thinly slice the potatoes using a mandoline or sharp knife.
- Soak the potato slices in cold water for 15-20 minutes to remove excess starch.
- Drain and pat dry with a paper towel.
-
Coat & Bake:
- In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil until evenly coated.
- Arrange the slices in a single layer on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
-
Make the Ketchup Seasoning:
- While the chips bake, mix tomato powder, vinegar powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and cayenne in a small bowl.
-
Season & Serve:
- Remove the chips from the oven and immediately toss them in the ketchup seasoning while still warm.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, bake at low heat (300°F/150°C) for a longer time (30-35 minutes).
- Air-fryer option: Cook at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes, shaking halfway.
- No tomato powder? Blend dried tomato slices into a fine powder using a spice grinder.
- Add extra tang by spritzing chips with a little vinegar before seasoning.
