Steps:
- Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C).
- Use a mandoline to thinly slice the potatoes into ⅛-inch-thick rounds. Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on a paper towel-lined baking sheet and let dry for 5 minutes.
- Lightly dust the cornstarch over half of the potato slices, then use a pastry brush to distribute the cornstarch evenly over the potatoes.
- Use a pastry brush to coat the remaining potato slices with the egg white.
- Place a cornstarch slice on top of an egg white slice with the cornstarch and egg white on the inside. Repeat with the remaining potato slices.
- Use a sharp knife to remove the rounded edges of each layered potato so they are even rectangles.
- Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, gently place the potatoes in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the potatoes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. They will deflate, but don't worry.

- In a small bowl, whisk together the crème fraîche, lime zest and juice, cumin, cayenne, chives, and bacon.

Tips:

- Slice the potatoes thinly and evenly. A mandoline slicer makes this easy.
- Soak the potato slices in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This will help the chips crisp up.
- Dry the potato slices thoroughly before frying. This will prevent splattering and help the chips crisp up.
- Use a large pot or Dutch oven for frying. This will allow the chips to fry evenly.
- Heat the oil to the correct temperature before adding the potato slices. The oil should be shimmering and about 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Fry the potato slices in batches. Do not overcrowd the pot, or the chips will not crisp up.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the chips from the oil and drain them on paper towels.
- Season the chips with salt, pepper, and other seasonings while they are still hot.
- Store the chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
