How do you make a crisp?
Chef's answer
Pour the vegetable oil into a plastic sandwich or freezer bag. Add the potato slices, and toss to coat. Coat a large dinner plate lightly with oil. Arrange potato slices in a single layer on the dish. Cook in the microwave for 3 to 5 minutes, or until lightly browned (if not browned, they will not become crisp). .
