Yukon Gold crisps with White Anchovy

This sophisticated take on a classic snack pairs the earthy flavour of golden potatoes with the delicate, vinegary tang of white anchovies. These homemade potato crisps are surprisingly simple to prepare, relying on the natural oils of the fish and a light brush of olive oil to achieve a perfect crunch. By sandwiching the slices between two baking trays, you ensure a flat, uniform finish that looks as professional as it tastes.

As a heart-healthy appetiser, this recipe provides a satisfying alternative to shop-bought snacks, focusing on fresh ingredients and healthy fats. The white anchovies, often called boquerones, offer a milder, more refined salty note than their tinned counterparts. Serve these elegant crisps as an impressive canapé or a light savoury nibble alongside a chilled glass of dry white wine.

Ingredients for Yukon Gold crisps with White Anchovy

  • 1 large Yukon Gold potato or other all-purpose potato

  • 6 white anchovies, patted dry with paper towels

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

How to make Yukon Gold crisps with White Anchovy

Preheat the oven to 177°C (see Note). Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Have ready an identical baking sheet and another silicone mat or piece of parchment.

Peel the potato. Use a Japanese mandolin or a very sharp knife to cut the potato lengthwise into paper-thin slices.

Choose 6 of the largest slices that are most similar in shape. With a sharp paring knife, make 3 small slits in a row in the centre of each slice, so that an anchovy can be threaded through along the length.

Thread an anchovy fillet through the slits of one slice. Repeat with the remaining anchovies and potato slices. Brush both sides of the chips with olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Arrange the slices on the prepared baking sheet and cover with the second silicone mat or piece of parchment . Top with the second baking sheet and put the sandwiched assembly in the oven. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until the chips are golden brown.

To serve, season the hot chips with salt and pepper and place each chip on a small plate.
