STEP BY STEP
Make it
Prepare
Heat oven to 400°F. Use fully cooked salted eggs; remove whites and mash yolks.
Blend
Melt butter in a skillet and mix in yolks. Process for about 1 minute until smooth, then stir in parsley.
Coat
Arrange chips in a single layer on parchment. Distribute the yolk butter evenly over them.
Bake
Bake 10 minutes. Let cool briefly so chips firm up, then serve.
Good to know
- Buy cooked salted eggs, or cook raw salted eggs according to their package before using.
- Unsalted chips and butter matter: the yolks supply substantial salt.
