Equipment
Ingredients
- 500 g potatoes peeled and chipped
- ½ tablespoon rapeseed oil or a good spray of frylight for low fat chips
- ½ tablespoon smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lighter mayonnaise thinned out with a tablespoon of water or 2 tablespoon as it is
- 60 g cheese grated
- 2 spring onions sliced
- 1 slice cooked ham cut into squares
Instructions
- First, preheat your oven at 240 degrees (gas mark 9) and line a large baking tray with your silicone mat. Note, the mat prevents any chips sticking whatsoever and there's no need to turn them.
- Once you've chipped your potatoes, place in a colander and rinse uner a cold tap and shake any excess moisture away.
- Transfer into a microwaveable bowl and microwave for 5 minutes.
- Place the chips in a tupperware container along with the oil and seasoning, firmly attach the lid and shake until everything is coated and roughed up a little. Note: if you don't have one, you could do this is a sturdy food bag.
- Spread your chips on your baking tray and bake in the oven for 15 minutes. If you prefer even crispier, bake for a further 5 minutes.
- Transfer to a baking dish and sprinkle on your cheese, broken ham, mayonnaise, spring onions and a final sprinkle of smoked paprika and bake in the oven for 5 minutes and serve!
