Instructions: Tomato Chip Dip with Homemade Potato Chips
- For the dip combine the mayo, sour cream, tomato pesto, dried chives and ranch in a bowl. Mix until creamy and well combined and place in fridge for two hours before serving.
- For the chips, wash your potatoes but do not peel them. Stick a fork in one end of the potato and use a peeler to peel thin slices of the potato into a bowl of ice water. You can also use a knife to cut them very thin, but a peeler works great.
- Let the potatoes soak in the ice water with some kosher salt (about 1 tablespoons) for about 20 minutes, drain and add ice water to the bowl again and saok for another 10 minutes.
- Drain and spread the potatoes out on clean dish towels or paper towels and pat them very dry on both sides.
- Heat your oil in a skillet until it is hot but not smoking. Add one potato to see if the oil is ready.
- When the oil is ready add the potatoes in batches and fry. These will only need to fry for a short time because they are so thin. Pull them before they reach the deep color brown you want because they will continue to cook when they are out of the pan. Let them drain on some paper towels.
- Taste and add a sprinkle of salt if needed.
- Serve with the dip.
