Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 medium baking potatoes (roughly 750g / 1½lb in total)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instruction

  • Preheat your oven to 220C / 200C fan / gas mark 7 / 425F.
  • Cut the potatoes into chip shapes and place in a bowl. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and add a little salt and pepper. Mix together thoroughly so all the chips are evenly coated in the oil and seasoning.
  • Spread the chips out on the baking trays - you will probably need 2 or 3 to ensure the chips are well spread out and not touching.
  • Put the baking trays in the oven for 10 minutes.
  • After 10 minutes take one baking tray out of the oven and turn all the chips over. Put that tray back in the oven and repeat for the other tray(s).
  • Cook the chips for 10 more minutes, then repeat - turning each chip again.
  • Cook the chips for 10 more minutes (so they have had 30 minutes cooking in total) or until they are done – I find trying one is the best way of knowing if they are done. (Just don’t burn your mouth – they will be hot!)
  • Serve with a nice steak, a homemade burger, a tuna steak or whatever you usually serve chips with.
