Electric deep fryers control the oil temperature automatically, making frying chips easier.
The FryDaddy, and other appliances like it, is an electric appliance that takes the guesswork out of deep-frying. These appliances use a thermostat built into the base to heat the oil to the precise frying temperature. Since the heating element is enclosed, there is no danger of hot oil spilling out onto a flame, as it could with stovetop frying. Use this same technique for making potato chips with any electric deep fryer.
Instructions
1. Remove the plastic lid from the FryDaddy, and add the vegetable oil.
2. Plug in the appliance to preheat the vegetable oil in the Fry Daddy for 15 minutes.
3. Scrub and then peel the potatoes using a vegetable peeler.
4. Thinly slice the potatoes with the mandolin or use a knife to cut the potatoes paper-thin.
5. Drop the potatoes into the hot oil in batches of 1/2-cup to keep from overcrowding the pot.
6. Fry the potatoes for four to six minutes or until golden brown. Flip the potato chips with the skimmer halfway through cooking.
7. Lift the cooked chips from the oil and transfer to paper towels to drain, cool and crisp.
