hey everyone Alessandro Bruxel here from Home Chef Seattle and today I'm going to be sharing with
you guys a recipe for Pommes Soufflé so what are Pommes Soufflé, Pommes Soufflé are these potato
chips that once you fry them they puff up and look like little pillows there are basically two
different methods to make them one is where they're fried twice at a lower temperature
oil first and then a higher temperature and they puff up on the second fry but the method that I'm
gonna be showing you guys today we're gonna be using two layers of potatoes and they're
only going to be fried once and puff up right away I hope you guys enjoy it let's get started
we'll need one large russet potato, one egg, potato starch or corn starch and vegetable oil for frying
start by slicing the potato with a mandolin the slices should be as thin as possible
lay the slices of a paper towel and tap them dry
separate the egg, we'll only be using the egg white
arrange matching slices, flip the second slice so they can match later
dust half of the slices with the potato or cornstarch
and brush off any excess making sure that the whole surface is covered
then brush the second half of the slices with the egg white, again make sure the whole surface is
coated combine the slices and press them down
lightly
then cut up circles using a round cutter you can also cut up squares or different shapes
with a knife if you wish heat up the oil to 300 Fahrenheit 150 Celsius and add a potato circle
and start basting it it should puff up right away keep basting and flip it until nice and golden
the thinner the potato slices were to start the faster they will crisp up and hold their shape
that is it guys perfect Pommes Soufflé little pillows I hope you guys have enjoyed the recipe
