Crispy homemade russet potato chips paired with a creamy, tangy gorgonzola cheese sauce make this an unforgettable snack or appetizer. Perfectly indulgent and packed with flavor.
Preheat Your Equipment: In a heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F.
Combine Ingredients: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt butter. Add heavy cream and gorgonzola cheese, stirring until smooth. Mix in garlic powder and black pepper. Keep warm.
Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Slice potatoes using a mandoline and soak them in cold water for 30 minutes. Drain, rinse, and pat dry thoroughly.
Assemble the Dish: Arrange a tray with paper towels for draining fried chips. Keep your sauce nearby and ready.
Cook to Perfection: Fry potato slices in batches, turning occasionally, until golden and crisp (about 3–4 minutes). Remove and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt immediately.
Finishing Touches: Drizzle warm gorgonzola sauce generously over the chips, or serve it on the side for dipping.
Serve and Enjoy: Plate the chips while hot, sprinkle with extra cheese or chives if desired, and dig in!
Notes
Use a mandoline for even slices.
Don’t skip soaking the potatoes—it ensures crispiness.
Keep sauce on low heat to prevent it from separating.
Reheat chips in the oven at 375°F for a few minutes to regain crispiness.
