Thought I'd post this as it's sometimes hard to get chips right is the home fryers, and its fish and chips for tonight.

Par cook whole potatoes in the microwave at around 70% of power and aim for a little firmer than potato salad. Turn the potatoes over 1/2 way through cooking...

Slice into chips while still hot and stack so they get plenty of air around them and allow to cool.

After they've cooled, do the 1st fry, put the chips into COLD OIL, set the oil to about 100/110 degrees and cook to you get a good cover of small blisters showing but no colour. About 15 minutes cook time.

Remove and set the oil up high, 170/180 degree or so and do the final cook for the desired colour and crispiness.

Depending on your choice of potatoes you should get good chips.
