Ingredients
- 2 large red beet bulbs
- oil for frying
- fancy salt (i used camargue)
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley
- 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
- salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
Directions
- Peel the beets and cut away the greens.
- Use a sharp knife or a mandoline to thinly slice the beets.
- If you want to cut the beets into heart shapes, I suggest using a variety of sizes of heart-shaped cookie cutters.
- This way you can arrange more than one cutter on the slice to get more chips.
- Heat the oil in a medium-sized skillet to 375 degrees F.
- Place a layer of paper towels beside the stove.
- Place the chips in and fry for 4-6 minutes.
- Remove the beet chips with a slotted spoon or spatula and let them drain on the paper towels.
- Pat the excess oil off of the top of the chips and sprinkle with salt.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, parsley, and garlic.
- Season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
- Transfer the chips to a bowl and serve immediately with the dip.
