Basic Recipe:



Ingredients: 
2 potatoes: Washed, skinned and sliced thin
Asafoetida 1 pinch
Salt 1 tsp

Step 2:  Now slice the potatoes really thin. You can use a chips cutter for this.
Step 3:  Soak the slices in the water for about 5 minutes.

Tava Method:  Apply a little oil on the tava. Now spread the slices on the tava making sure that each slice is separated and has its space. Cook on low flame. The pieces will start becoming crisp and turn upwards at the sides. Now turn the pieces so that it cooks evenly. Remove when crisp. This should take about 2 minutes maximum.

Microwave Method: Place a baking sheet on a microwaveable tray. Now place the slices on this sheet. Cook for 3-5 (varies according to microwave) minutes. Now remove the tray and turn each piece over. Microwave once again for 2-4 minutes. Wait for a few minutes for the pieces to become crisp. Adjust timing according to your specific microwave.
