Ingredients
Preparation
-
Preparing Jerusalem artichokes: Wash the Jerusalem artichokes thoroughly in cold water to remove all traces of soil. If their skin is thin, you can leave it on; otherwise, peel them gently with a vegetable peeler.
-
Using a mandoline or a very sharp knife, slice the Jerusalem artichokes into thin rounds (about 2 mm thick) to ensure even cooking.
-
Drying: Place the slices between two clean tea towels or absorbent paper to dry them thoroughly. This will prevent them from softening during cooking.
-
Seasoning: Place the Jerusalem artichoke slices in a large salad bowl.
-
Add the olive oil, salt and, if desired, the chosen spices or herbs.
-
Mix gently to coat each slice well.
-
Oven cooking: Preheat your oven to 180°C (fan oven preferred).
-
Arrange the slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure they do not overlap to ensure even cooking.
-
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, checking regularly to prevent burning. Turn them over halfway through baking for even crispness.
-
Finishing: Once cooked, let the chips cool slightly on the baking sheet before enjoying them. They will become even crispier as they cool.
Note
You can cook Jerusalem artichoke chips in the Ninja Foodi, in Air Fry mode at 180 degrees, for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring regularly.
