Prepare the baking mold by lining it up with parchment paper.

Fill the baking mold with the potato slices, stacking/ layering each one on top of the other. Use the excess parchment paper to cover the top of the baking mold.

Place a weight on top of the parchment to squeeze the potato slices together, and place in the fridge for 2-3 hours. Remove from fridge then slice to your desired shape.
