Curried Chips

Curry and chips are a match made in heaven! These 3 ingredient curried chips are fluffy, crispy and full of spicy flavour that will be the tastiest chips you’ve ever tried. 

Heating the oil in the oven ahead of adding the potatoes, makes sure that the oil isn’t immediately soaked into the chips, but instead left to crisp the outside and create a crunchy golden coating. Similarly par-boiling makes sure the chips are as fluffy as possible on the inside.

Curry sauce on chips is a classic dish across you’ll find in most English chippies, so I thought this could be a fun alternative to make your regular chips a bit more exciting.

Give the curry ketchup a go too, the spices perfectly compliment the flavours on the curried chips.

What you need to make 3 Ingredient Curried Chips

• White potatoes
• Curry powder
• Vegetable oil

Curry ketchup

• 1/4 cup tomato ketchup
• 1 tsp curry powder

How to make them

Pre-heat your oven to 220°C/450°F.

Firstly wash, peel and chop your potatoes into chips. Then add the chips to a saucepan of salted water and bring to a boil. Reduce to simmer.

Add a generous amount of vegetable oil into a large baking tray (enough to create a layer of oil at the bottom of the tray). Now heat the oil in the oven for 10 minutes while the potatoes par boil at the same time for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes, drain the potatoes in a colander and shake around to fluff up.

Next add the potatoes to the heated tray of oil and stir through (please be very careful as the oil will be very hot and may spit). Then season with the curry powder (the measurement here is approximate – if you want more add more!) and a generous helping of salt and pepper. Turn and mix until evenly coated.

Finally bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes, turning once half way through, until golden brown. Try served with some ketchup stirred through with curry powder!

For added spice, sprinkle over chilli powder as well as the curry.

This method is helpful as you can use it to make any other flavours of chips you enjoy to keep things diverse! You could try this 3 ingredient chip recipe and simply swap out the curry powder for:

• Chilli powder
• Mixed herbs (oregano, basil, parsley, thyme, marjoram)
• Paprika
• Onion or garlic powder
• Cajun spice 

Or keep it simple with some salt and/or pepper for a simple flavoured chip! The principle for these also would work well for wedges or normal roast potatoes simply by cutting your potatoes into wedges or chunky roasties!
