Method

1. Scrub and wash the potatoes, then cut into chips about 3/8" thick. (Remember the thinner the chips the more oil you'll be eating.)


2. Plunge the chips into the ice cold water and leave for 30 minutes. This process helps to eliminate the starch and thus stop the cooked chips sticking together.


3. Heat the oven for keeping the chips warm later


4. Heat the oil in a deep frying pan to a temperature of around 320C.


5. While the oil is heating, drain the potatoes and pat dry


6. Fry small quantities of the chips for about 3 minutes or until they are soft and floppy looking.


7. Remove from the oil and leave to cool on absorbent kitchen paper.


8. Continue frying small batches until all the potatoes are done.


9. Season the potatoes with some salt or seasoning of your choice


10. Reheat the oil to 375C.


11. Fry the chips (again in small batches) for another 2 -3 minutes or until crisp and golden.


12. Keep the chips warm in the oven till they are all done and then serve immediately .
