when i was a kid we often had pototo slices thinly and deep fried to make a scallop type chip... anyway thing have moved on an deep fat fryer no longer exsists.
how can i make them without one? if i cut the potato into think slices and oven with oil will they come out any good or will they be like roast potatoes?
I am pregnant and really fancy some!
Thanks for your time and help in advance

I do this with left over new potatoes... Just slice and fry them in a little butter and oil! You could do that with larger potatoesPutting these winter preps here so I don't forget!

no ours used to be like chips. no batter or anything. all the recipes i have found are about soaking in milk? i dont think ours were like that
might try frying in a wok that should work thanks:j Proud mum to Jade age 10 years and Baby Ellie born Christmas Day:eek: with a broke heart Proven to be a little fighter and battling on with her heart condition :j
