Salt & Chilli Chip Fakeaway

Cut the costs of your weekly takeaways and try this delicious homemade Chinese meal.

Cooking PotMETHOD

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°

  2. Pour 6 tablespoons of veg oil into a large, flat oven tray and place into the oven.

  3. Bring a large pot of water to the boil while you peel the potatoes and slice into chip shape.

  4. Place the potatoes into the water and boil for approx. 7 minutes.

  5. Drain the potatoes and place straight into the hot oven tray. Place into the oven and cook for 40 minutes - turning halfway.

  6. Dice the onion, finely chop the chilies (leaving the seeds in) and roughly chop the spring onions and set to the side.

  7. 10 minutes before you are due to take the potatoes out of the oven place a large frying/wok pan on medium heat and pour in the remaining veg oil.

  8. Put the onion, chilies and spring onion into the hot pan and soften (this takes around 5 minutes) make sure you keep stirring so they don’t stick.

  9. Remove the potatoes from the oven and cover with the Chinese spice - I find this easier to do in a bowl so that potatoes are completely covered in the spice.

  10. Put the potatoes into the pan with the rest of the ingredients, add the salt and cook for another 5 minutes before serving.
