Finger Chips




Ingredients:

500 g potatoes
Oil for fry
Salt to taste

Method:

Peel the potatoes Using a peeler, remove the skin from all the potatoes, cut each potato lengthwise into thick chunks (About a centimetre and a half in size). Start by adding the oil to a deep-fat fryer and heating it up in medium falme. First check the temperature by putting only one chunk of potato into the oil. If it sizzles and frys immediately then the oil is ready. If not, leave it for slightly longer. Fry the chopped potatoes until just cooked through. You will need to move them once or twice while frying. To test whether the chips are cooked thoroughly, remove one from the fryer and insert a knife. If it passes through smoothly, then they are ready. Take the chips out of the oil and leave them to cool for one hour. Put the chips back in to the oil with high flame and fry them until golden brown. Season the chips well with salt and serve hot with tomato ktechup.
