Ingredients

Directions

  1. Slice the washed Idaho potato into uniform 1/8-inch thick rounds using a mandoline or sharp knife.
  2. Pat the potato slices completely dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  3. Heat olive oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350ðF (175ðC).
  4. Carefully add potato slices to the hot oil in small batches, ensuring they do not overlap.
  5. Fry the slices until they are golden brown and crisp, flipping occasionally, about 3-5 minutes.
  6. Remove chips with a slotted spoon and lay them on a rack lined with paper towels to drain.
  7. Immediately sprinkle the hot chips with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Fill a piping bag fitted with a star tip with mascarpone cheese or crème fraîche.
  9. Pipe a small teaspoon-sized dollop of cheese onto the center of each cooled potato chip.
  10. Garnish each chip with a small pinch of finely chopped fresh chives.
  11. Place a small teaspoon of salmon caviar or American black caviar on top of or beside the mascarpone dollop.
  12. Arrange the finished chips on a serving platter and serve immediately while chips are still crisp.
