Equipment
Ingredients
- Fry Light
- 500 g potatoes peeled and chipped
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper optional
Instructions
- First, preheat your oven at 220 fan / 240 c conventional / (gas mark 9) / 475F 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 them in a colander, and rinse under 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 lots of sprays of Fry Light 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 in 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 and serve.

Notes
- y microwaving the homemade oven chips first, it draws out some moisture for a quicker cooking time. If skipped, then baking time should be longer at around 20-25 minutes
- To speed up cooking even further, rest the potatoes on layers of paper towels in a dry place
