Home Grown Vegetable Crisps

This is a very naughty but very nice recipe. It's just the absolute basic version but you can add extra spiciness with chili flakes, pepper or herbs.
  I used a special slicing gadget to get even slices, it's name currently escapes me....
 You can use any oil, pick one that you like the flavour of, i prefer sunflower oil, which is produced in the UK.


Vegetable Crisps

Ingredients

Any or all of the below can be used:
medium sized raw beetroot
sweet potatoes
Carrots
Potatoes
Parsnips

Oil, for deep-frying
Sea salt

Method


Peel the vegetables, then slice thinly, either by hand or using the slicing blade of a food processor.
Sprinkle with salt and dry well on kitchen paper.
Heat the oil to 180C or until a slice of vegetable added to it rises to the surface instantly and starts to brown.
Add vegetable slices in batches and fry until crisp and golden. Serve piled up on a plate and sprinkled with sea salt.
