Home made oven chips

Actually, I usually use duck fat for roast potatoes or vegetable oil.

So really they are roast potatoes cut into a different shape.

Yep, but I don't add butter to roast potatoes.

We cut large wedges from baking potatoes rinse and dry then spread on one of those open based chip trays, spray with olive oil, dust with chopped chillis or cayenne and just cook... not need to par boil.

Just a little change we like to do is small squares, think they might technically be known as parmentier or similar, delicious and not “just roast potatoes”.

We bake them using one spray after slicing and par boiling. Allow to rest a bit, add salt/herbs if required. About 20 minutes in a flat tin on 200 depending on thickness. Check and turn as necessary.

I don't even par boil mine any more, just cut them into chips , toss them in some rapeseed oil with some paprika and some salt , usually air fry at 190° for 20 mins or oven cook for at 200° for 30 minutes. I didn't see any difference than when I par boiled them tbh.

I've never got the hang of making them.

They end up stuck to the tray.

I don’t parboil, just spray with a little olive oil, then add garlic granules/paprika/chinese 5 spice or just chopped fresh herbs, depending on what else I’m cooking.

So really they are roast potatoes cut into a different shape.

If you like spicy food, a few dried chilli flakes mixed with the oil gives them a lift.
