Cook The Pasta

• In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the pasta until al dente, about 8 minutes. 
• Drain the pasta.
• Line a large baking tray with a dishcloth and spread the cooked pasta over it. Cover it with another dishcloth and press gently to absorb any extra moisture on the pasta. This is a very important step to get crispy chips.
• Refrigerate the pasta for 3-4 hours.
• If you are pressed with time, then spread the pasta on the baking sheet and freeze it for 15 minutes.

Make Pasta Chips

Deep Frying Method

• In a wide skillet, pour about 2-3 cups of canola oil and heat over medium heat.
• When oil is shimmering, add about 1 cup of cooked pasta to the pan.
• Fry on medium heat until golden and crispy. Keep stirring while frying frequently.
• Drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
• Sprinkle some parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper over the fried pasta immediately and toss well.
• Fry the remaining pasta in the same manner. Do not overcrowd the pan while frying otherwise the pasta will not turn crunchy.
• Serve with any dipping sauce.

Air Fryer Method

• Arrange the cooked pasta in the basket of an air fryer in a single layer. Spray with oil.
• Air fry at 400 degrees F for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Shake the basket every 4 minutes for even browning.
• Sprinkle some parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper over the fried pasta immediately and toss well.
• Air fry the remaining pasta in the same manner. Serve hot with a dipping sauce.
