HUNTER'S BEET CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Spread beets out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Brush beets on both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Turn beets and continue cooking until crisp, another 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer chips to a wire rack to cool.

FANTASTIC MICROWAVED BEET CHIPS

Steps:

• Slice beets very thin. I use a mandolin set at the thinnest setting.
• Brush a thin layer of oil in the bottom of a microwave safe pan. I use my pampered chef stoneware.
• Lay the beet slices in the pan, slightly overlapping. They will shrink significantly, so no need to leave "breathing" room.
• Sprinkle LIGHTLY with salt. Since they shrink so much, the salt taste will be more concentrated when done.
• Microwave on high. My first pan takes 6 minutes. Each pan full after takes 5 - 5 1/2 minutes, since the pan's hot.
• There's no need to re-oil the pan after the first set.
• Feel free to experiment with different flavors on the chips.

BEET CHIPS

Steps:

• Peel beets. Using a mandoline or other manual slicer cut beets into paper-thin slices and transfer to a large bowl. Add cornstarch and toss well to coat.
• In a 3-quart saucepan heat oil until a deep-fat thermometer registers 350°F. Working in batches of 8 to 10 slices, separating them from one another, fry beets, turning once or twice, until crisp and beginning to shrivel, 30 seconds to 1 minute, making sure oil returns to 350°F before adding next batch. Transfer chips as fried with a large slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and season with salt. Beet chips may be made 12 hours ahead and kept, uncovered, at room temperature.
