Peel and wash the potatoes
Cut them into thin slices
Soak the potato slices in cold water for at least 15 minutes
Spread the soaked potato slices over a clean piece of cloth
Place another cloth over the potatoes and wipe out the moisture
Keep these aside for at least 20 minutes or until the moisture is completely gone
Fry these slices in hot oil until they are crisp
After the first round of frying, heat up the oil again
