Home Made Chips

Come on! Nobody likes oven chips!

They're coated with so many chemicals that it's just not worth the risk - apart from the fact that they taste crap!

If you're put off by the frying then try the cajun potato wedges that I posted earlier, without the cajun seasoning, but nothing really beats home meade chips.

Ingredients : 2 large potatoes per person

peel and wash the potatoes then cut into chip-sized pieces - this depends on your preference.

Heat some oil in a pan and drop in a small cube of bread. When the bread begins to brown, add the chips and cook for 6 minutes. If using a deep fat fryer, heat the oil to 160°C.

Remove chips and place on kitchen towel to drain.

Heat the oil further and drop in a small piece of onion. When the onion begins to brown, put the chips back in the oil and cook for 2-3 minutes, until they become a nice golden brown. If using a deep fat fryer heat the oil to 190°C.

Drain on kitchen paper, add salt, pepper and vinegar to taste.
