ALL oven chips are an obomination and bear no resemblance to real chips. Just another potato product.

You've got to hand it to the supermarkets and food companies when with clever marketing and packaging they can convince people to buy a product that is vastly inferior but a lot more expensive than the real thing.

Very good chips need cooking twice, it's a lot of mess and faffing. If you don't have a deep fryer it has to be the oven, or those floppy anemic things from the chippy.

"Very good chips need cooking twice...."
Totally agree, blanch them first (so they are cooked without colour) and then later in the deep fat again to crisp them up to a pale golden colour. Lot of people reckon Maris Piper best potato for chips, wouldn't argue with that, but a good Wilja will also make nice chips. Best way to cook them beef dripping, just a fantastic flavour for real fish and chips. Lot of chip shops especially up North used beef dripping years ago but these days most people want the healthiest options. Oven chips have improved a lot but still second best to 'real' chips. And best oven chips imo those posh ones McCain Gorgeous Chips - basted in beef dripping. |

Tefal Actifry makes very good low fat chips. Not as good as proper twice fried chips but in a different league to "oven chips".

I'm surprised a lot of erstwhile sensible posters here are endorsing oven chips as I understood they were exclusively for poor people.
|
|
By:
Poor and lazy people. Strange frame of mind though. When you're skint you buy expensive processed food products that you could cook yourself for a fraction of the cost.

By:
So, poor, lazy and thick then.

Deep fat fryers are generally owned by lard arses tbf, Johnny. I wouldn't give one house room.
