Perfect Chips

Ingredients:

800 g Maris Piper potatoes 

Groundnut oil

Method:

1. Peel and cut the potatoes into chunky chips, I like to soak mine in slightly salted water, until I'm ready to fry them.

2. Heat your deep fat fryer to 140C, add you chips and cook for approx 8 mins. This will blanch your chips, making them soft but not colouring them,

3. Turn you deep fat fryer up to 180C, once the oil is hot enough, then cook the chip until golden brown. I usually cook the chip in 2 batches at this stage, to maintain the heat of the oil.

4. Remove the chip from the oil and drain on kitchen paper., then season with sea salt flakes and vinegar, serve immediately.
