Bella Makes Potato Chips


Bella decided to make potato chips to go along with lunch. I tell you the girl is fearless in the kitchen!

She worked from a recipe but quickly realized that there was no trick to slicing the potatoes thinly with a knife, dropping them in hot oil, fishing them out, then salting them. The only trick is not eating them all at once!

  2. yummmy we love homemade potato chips. We tried a knife but found that a vegetable peeler works much better and gets the potatoes nice and thin

  3. I am predicting we will see Bella on the Food Network some day--making and sharing all her delicious recipes! And we will be able to say "I 'knew' her when!" She's a gem but I'm sure you know that!

  5. I love that Bella does this kind of thing! Now she's ready for a new recipe: same technique, only quarter-inch thick plantains. Green ones work best. :)

  6. I don't know how you stay so slim. I'd be a balloon if Bella lived here. Those look so good, I could just lick the monitor.
