Chip

Does anybody still make real chips or do you all buy frozen. I had the mis-fortune last night to have to eat Mc Cain oven chips as the kids cooked the tea and they were dreadful.

Can't beat a good old King Edward or Maris Piper spud to make chips. I cook them on a low heat first for about 5 mins, let them cool then blast them for a minute in very hot groundnut oil to get them nice and crispy.

Ditto Chip Shop less than a 1 minute walk from here


Not to low heat though as the chips just soak up the oil and make them taste orrible

I'm a fan. Skins on, chunky, salt and pepper, splash of vinegar and a dip of choice - loverly.

I spent 6 months trying to find a crinkle cutter. Mmm, crinkle cut with loads of sea salt and Sarson's vinegar

Yes, I make them too. Got to be lard or dripping, though.

I remember my mum's old chip pan. Looked like it had survived a nuclear blast and had a four inch thick lard lake in it, solidified of course, with the wire basket well and truely entombed! You could take a core sample through the lard and tell the age of the fat by the crispy bits in it. Made wicked chips though.
