Instructions

1. Peel the potatoes. With a knife that's not too sharp, peel them in a spiral, like an apple, taking off a strip as long as possible, until there's no potato left.
2. Heat plenty of oil and fry the ribbons a few at a time. Take them out as soon as they start to color: they keep darkening out of the oil.
3. Drain them on a cloth and pile them on a platter with salt, pepper and a few drops of lemon juice. With bread, says the author, they make an excellent meal.
