How to cook chips without frying and without oil
Peel the potatoes. Cut into small pieces.
Boil until tender for 20-25 minutes.
Place in a colander or sieve and let the water drain. We cut the onion and send it together with the finished potatoes to the processor. You can also grind products with an immersion blender.
Add 50 gr. water and beat everything until smooth. Place in a separate bowl, mix with starch and baking powder, and add salt. Mix carefully so that there are no lumps.If the mixture turns out to be too liquid, you can add a little more starch.
Pour the mixture into a piping bag. Place baking paper or parchment on a baking sheet. Squeeze out small balls of potato mixture and cover with the same sheet of paper. Using a regular mug, press down the balls, turning them into flat circles.
And place the baking sheet in an oven preheated to 140 degrees for 12 minutes. Or bake in the oven at 110 degrees, but a little longer - 30 minutes.
We take out the baking sheet, remove the top sheet of parchment and, using a knife, carefully separate the chips from the bottom base.
