Air Fryer Chips

Instead of buying frozen air fryer chips, make your own. It takes time, but you can make chips in bulk and keep them in the fridge before frying.

Ina’s Tip

Why the bicarb of soda? It gives a good colour to the chips, but it neutralises some of the Vitamin C. The choice is yours.

Method:

Rinse and scrub the potatoes (no need to peel).

Cut the potatoes into chips.

In a medium saucepan, measure water, salt, and bicarb (if using). Mix to dissolve.

Add the chips.

Bring the chips to a slow boil. Cook for 7 - 10 minutes until they're just beginning to soften.

Strain the chips in a colander and shake off the excess water.

Dry them open on a cooling rack.

Leave the chips, well spread out, for 30 - 45 minutes.

Divide them in half.

Toss the chips with 2 T (30 ml) oil.

Air fry at 200°C ,without a paper liner, for ± 25 minutes until crisp and golden brown.

Repeat oiling and frying with the remaining half.


Flavoured Mayo

Mix together the mayo and Flavour Bomb.

Use as a dip for the chips.
