Peel the potatoes using a vegetable peeler.

Place the peeled potatoes in a bowl with water while finishing peeling the rest.

Discard the potato peels after peeling all the potatoes.

Use a vegetable peeler to slice the potatoes thinly into crisps, or use a knife if you don't have a peeler.

Transfer the sliced potatoes to a bowl of water to remove excess starch, washing until the water runs clear.

Dry the potato slices using paper towels, ensuring they are completely dry before frying.

Place a frying pan over medium-high flame to heat the cooking oil.

Drop one potato slice into the oil to check if it's hot enough; small bubbles indicate it's ready.

Fry the potato slices in batches for 1 to 2 minutes, avoiding overcrowding the pan.

Use a skimmer to flip the potato slices halfway through frying until they are golden brown.

Remove the crispy potato slices from the oil and drain on paper towels.

Immediately sprinkle the hot crisps with table salt to season them while they are still hot.

Toss the potato crisps with salt using your hands to ensure even coating.
