Chips!!!

We occasionally use our deep fat frier using frozen oven chips.

They taste fine.

We buy crinkle cut oven chips from the coop own brand.

My son was friends with a boy whose large family were very rough and ready. Son was about 13 and this boy asked him if he wanted some chips. The boy walked up the garden dug up a couple of big spuds and gave them a wipe, sliced them up and cooked them in the chip pan. Son thought this was awesome and said they tasted great.

I make my own chips in the oven. Just like roast potatoes but a different shape.

I still have a chip pan in a cupboard.
It hasn’t been used for many years, but oh were they good?
I used beef dripping.
I eventually stopped just because of the way the house would smell of chip fat for hours afterwards.
Oven chips or airfryer ones just can’t compare and I just really eat chips when eating out which also is a rare event now.

I buy thin frozen ones and cook in the air fryer. Usually really good.

Why peel the potatoes? just chip them with the skins on.

Our lovely neighbour , old Mrs P , made the chips from potato’s and they were cooked in lard. Oh gosh they were tasty. 🤤 Another thing she did wasc, slide a toast on to a poker and grill them on her open fire- another tasty snack

My old mum swore by King Edward’s potatoes for chips. The deep fat fryer was always kept on the cooker top but I don’t think she used lard.

Most supermarkets have "fry chips" though you have to look for them as most bags are oven chip these days. You can make from scratch, but only some varieties of potatoes make good chips.

frozen chips are convenient, but never as tasty as peeled potatoes

I use “real” potatoes in our air fryer.

They’ll never be like good old fashioned chips as they are not deep fried in vats of oil, but not bad at all.

And even better in beef fat.
