Preheat oven to 400F.
Slice Potatoes
Using a mandoline, slice potatoes lengthwise in 1/16-inch slices.
(No need to peel the potatoes because you’ll be trimming off the skin part.)
Discard top and bottom slices that are all peel.
Don’t rinse them because the starch will help the stacks cling together.
Stack slices in the order they were cut in 1-inch tall stacks.
Trim short and long sides to make a rectangle.
Cut rectangle crosswise into 3 pieces.
Cook Potatoes
Check the oil with a potato scrap; it should sizzle.
Reduce heat to medium.
Gently add 12 potato stacks to the hot oil, close together, but not crowded.
The oil should come halfway up the sides of the stacks.
Fry 4 to 5 minutes or until golden.
Using tongs, carefully turn and fry 4 to 5 minutes on the second side or until golden.
Drain and Season
Drain on paper towels.
Transfer to a baking sheet and bake 10 minutes longer to cook completely through.
Serve
In a small bowl, combine Parmesan, oregano, and paprika.
Serve with Sriracha Aioli for dipping.
Make Dip
In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, and lemon juice.
Store the dip in the fridge until ready to serve.
