Potato Crisps with Sage

Total time: 55 minutes
    These get quite a dark, golden brown and very crispy.  If you prefer them softer bake them for 20 minutes rather than 30 before adding the sage.  Based on a recipe from Cooking Light Magazine

 Ingredients:

• 2 - 4 potatoes, depending on size, 12 - 16oz (400gr) total weight
• 2 tbs olive oil
• 15 - 20 large sage leaves
• sea salt

 Instructions:

• Cut potatoes the long way into 3/16 inch (.4cm) thick slices.  You should get around 5 slices from each potato - the first and last slices, being mostly peel and not flat, should be discarded. 
• Put olive oil in large bowl and add potato slices.  Mix with fingers to coat each slice. 
• Remove potato slices and put on baking sheet with low edge - nonstick, if you have it. 
• Bake in 400F oven for 30 minutes. 
• Put the sage leaves in the bowl and toss to coat with oil - using fingers and adding oil if necessary. 
• After 30 minutes remove potatoes from oven.  With spatula lift up each potato slice and place a sage leaf under it. 
• Return to oven for 10 minutes. 
• Remove potatoes and turn them so that the sage leaf is on top. 
• Bake for another 10 minutes. 
• Remove from oven and sprinkle with salt.  Serve immediately.
