Introduction
The potato will absorb less oil if the oil is very hot and stays hot.I weighed the oil before and after frying. I started with 33 grams of oil and 10 grams were left in the pan after I was done.

Ingredients
-
288 Baked Potato, with skin
23 grams Canola Oil
1/8 tsp Salt
Directions
Use cast iron skillet.
Add 3 TBS of canola oil to skillet (The potato will absorb about 1.5 TBS)
Heat on number 7 (med high) until oil is shimmering and starting to smoke a little.
Cut one cold baked potato into 1/2" rounds while oil is heating.
Put the cut potato on a plate with a paper towel or napkin or brown paper bag and microwave for 2 minutes until hot. The napkin absorbs water/moisture. The oil temp will also stay up if the potato is hot and not cold from the fridge.
Put the rounds in the oil and cook until brown. Turn.
Remove the rounds from the oil when each side is as brown and crispy as you like. Put back on the paper napkin to absorb any excess oil (but I don't find them to be oily or greasy). Sprinkle with salt while hot.
Serve with ketchup and vinegar.
Serving Size: 1 serving, if you are splurging. 2 servings, if you are sharing. :)
