Low Fat Microwave Potato Wafers


Ingredients:
Potatoes, peeled, washed
 Oil- 1 teaspoon(optional)
 Chilli Powder -1/2 teaspoon ( you can use oregano, pepper powder/dried mint, chilli flakes etc too)
Salt to taste


Procedure 
1.Slice the potatoes with a slicer, Pat the potato slices dry.
2. Mix the oil, salt and chilli powder in a wide bowl, toss the potato slices in it. Mix gently with your hands, ensuring the slices get an even coating of the mixture.
 3.Lightly grease a microwave safe plate. Choose even sized slices and arrange them around the circumference of the plate. Do not keep any in the middle of the plate. Food kept in the middle of the plate gets cooked faster, and may cause it to burn.
4. Microwave on high for 4-5 minutes,but do keep a close watch as they may burn if u keep for long.
if it isnt crispy yet microwave for 5 more seconds til a bit brown(golden).Too much browning will give an unpleasant taste.
5. Remove the wafers from the plate, slide a knife beneath if needed.
6. Cool for about 5 minutes and allow to crisp fully. Store in an air tight container.
