Best ready made oven chips

  • Yep home chips are the same. I like them but only buy them when they are on a very good special offer. I find Sainsbury's normal range oven chips very nice too, particularly the steak cut ones. They aren't coated but are very tasty and are all good sized chips xx

    I still miss the ones Iceland used to sell called "The best oven chips in the world", they stopped selling them a few years ago.

    Tesco Finest chunky oven chips are lovely and they're so big & chunky that you only need a few on the plate.

    OH has a thing that he prefers crinkle cut chips, used to only like the Home Chips but I started buying Aldi own crinkle cut and he much prefers those, in fact I don't really like chips and I like them too.

    do make my own sometimes but oven chips are handy to just bung in the oven

    Swede, turnip and celeriac are supposed to be lower carb than spuds so my OH does HM oven chips his own way, based on a Rose Elliot recipe. Swede oven chips are fantastic. Ocado has Bare Necessities organic swedes for 99p usually on Smart Pass.

    Waitrose does organic oven chips but I think OH would buy McCains himself if in supermarket, although he tucks into the Waitrose ones without complaint.

    McCains Homefries or Homechips as they are now for me too. It's one of the brands where when I tried downshifting I can always tell the difference. Aunt Bessies are my second choice if I can't get McCain Homechips.

    How weird cos I was going to post about oven chips today:D

    Been a long time since I bought any and noemi overwhelmed with the choice. I got some home chips I think they were, but they are coated and in my mind - disgusting

    I want a chip, just potato, no coating for crispiness. Other then the crinkle cuts, is there a decent oven chip out there?
  • I love Tesco Crinkle Cut Oven Chips - delicious & gluten-free :j
