Instructions

1. Preparation:
   • Wash and dry all vegetables thoroughly.
   • Use a mandoline slicer to cut the sweet potato, zucchini, and beetroot into thin, even slices. This ensures consistent cooking.
2. Seasoning:
   • In a large mixing bowl, toss the vegetable slices with olive oil, sea salt, paprika, and black pepper. Coat evenly.
3. Preheat the Air Fryer:
   • Set the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and preheat for 3 minutes.
4. Cooking the Chips:
   • Place the vegetable slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding for crispier chips.
   • Cook for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket every 5 minutes to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
5. Check for Crispness:
   • Remove thinner slices that crisp up faster and leave thicker ones to cook a bit longer.
6. Cooling:
   • Let the chips cool for 5 minutes. They will become crispier as they cool.
7. Serve:
   • Serve immediately as a snack or a side with your favorite dips, such as hummus or guacamole.
