Crispy Sweet potato chips

I love simple recipes. Growing up boiled sweet potato's were our snack. It was yummy. We try to incorporate it as much as possible, but only I end up eating. Lol.

Recently my friend shared this recipe and my family loved it too. It is very easy and delicious.

Give it a try.

  • 1 spoon chili powder( more if you want spicy)
  • 1/2 spoon jeera
  • curry leaves
  • few cloves of garlic

Preparation:

  • Peel sweet potatoes, thinly slice them, (like in the picture. If you have fancy slicer you can use it)

  • Add few curry leaves, cumin seeds, one clove of garlic, a pinch of red chilly powder, sea salt as desired to taste, and turn off the stove when you see them sauteed well.
