Chilli chips
A spicy version of chipped potatoes.
What you need
- 675 g potatoes
- 3 tsp mild chilli powder
- vegetable oil for deep-frying
Method
Peel and cut potatoes into slices and then into chips. Toss in a bowl with the chilli powder to lightly coat.
Heat enough oil in a deep fat fryer or a large pan to 190°C. Put half of the chips in a frying basket, lower into the oil and cook for 5-6 min until crisp and golden brown.
Drain thoroughly on kitchen paper. Keep warm while frying the remainder. Drain as before and serve immediately.
Serving suggestion
Cook's tip
The safest way to check the temperature of the oil for frying is to use a thermometer or for your deep fat fryer to have a thermostat on it. If you have neither, then check the temperature by dropping one chip into the oil which should rise to the surface
