Prepare the potatoes. Wash and peel the potatoes. Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice them into very thin, uniform rounds (about 1/16 inch or 1.5mm thick). Place the sliced potatoes immediately into a large bowl of cold water. Let them soak for 30 minutes. This removes excess starch and helps make them crispy.
Dry the potato slices. Drain the water completely. Spread the potato slices in a single layer on clean kitchen towels or paper towels. Pat them thoroughly dry. This step is crucial – any moisture will cause the oil to splatter and will prevent the chips from getting crispy.
Mix the masala seasoning. In a small bowl, combine the red chili powder, chaat masala, amchur powder, salt, and black salt. Mix well and set aside.
Fry the chips in batches. Heat the oil in a deep kadai or pan over medium-high heat to about 350°F (175°C). Carefully add a handful of dried potato slices to the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sizzling subsides and the chips are light golden and crispy. Remove the chips with a slotted spoon and drain them on a wire rack or a plate lined with paper towels.
Season and serve. While the chips are still hot, transfer them to a large bowl. Sprinkle the prepared masala mix over them and toss gently to coat evenly. Let the chips cool completely before serving for maximum crispiness.
