The Best Oven Chips With Garlic And Herbs Food

GARLIC AND HERB CAULIFLOWER CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment or silicone baking mats and spray with cooking spray.
• Microwave the cauliflower in a microwave-safe bowl on high, stopping and stirring halfway through, until tender, about 2 minutes; let cool for 5 minutes.
• Put the cauliflower in a clean towel and squeeze out any liquid. Transfer to a medium bowl and add the Parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic powder and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine.
• Scoop heaping-tablespoon mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart (10 to 12 to a sheet). Shape and flatten the mounds into small discs, about 2 1/2-inches wide.
• Bake until the edges of the crisps are deep golden brown, about 14 minutes. Let cool on the pan for 5 minutes before serving; the crisps will firm up as they cool.

OVEN CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to highest temperature, generally 240 degrees Celsius.
• Lightly oil a large shallow roasting tin and place it in the oven to get really hot while you prepare the potatoes.
• Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise, then into long thin wedges, or thicker ones if you prefer.
• Brush each side lightly with oil (or just pop them into a large bowl, pour some oil over and mix them around a few times to coat them).
• When the oven is really hot, remove the pan carefully and scatter the potato wedges over it, spreading them out in a single layer over the hot oil.
• Sprinkle the potato wedges with the herbs and salt and roast for about 20 minutes, or longer if they are thicker.
• They will be ready when they are golden brown, crisp and lightly puffy.
• Remove from oven and serve with a dollop of mayonnaise.

OVEN-ROASTED CHIPS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Peel the potatoes and cut them into long chip shapes - the thickness is entirely up to you, though the width of a finger is ideal. Rinse under the cold tap and pat dry with a tea towel.
• Spread the chips on a large non-stick baking tray and toss with the olive oil and celery salt. Lie them flat in a single layer - use two trays rather than overcrowd one.
• Roast for 45-50 mins, turning now and then. When cooked they should be golden brown and crisp with a light fluffy centre. Scatter on sea salt to serve.

ULTIMATE OVEN CHIPS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Peel the potatoes and chop into medium-sized chips. Rinse under cold running water, then tip into a large pan, cover with cold salted water, add the vinegar and bring to a simmer over a medium heat. Stir once, then continue to simmer for about 6-8 mins until the chips are just cooked through but not breaking apart. Drain well.
• Add the oil to a shallow roasting tin and put in the oven to heat for 5 mins. Toss the chips in the cornflour, then carefully tip into the hot oil and arrange in a single layer using tongs. Drizzle with a little more oil to coat, then roast for 20 mins.
• Carefully turn the chips over in the oil using a spatula, then return to the oven for another 20 mins until golden brown.

BEST EVER OVEN CHIPS

Steps:

• Trim all the rounded edges off the potatoes to make a rectangular block, then cut this into thick batons (save any offcuts to make mash). Drop into a pan of cold salted water with the vinegar and bring to the boil. Simmer for 6-8 mins until the potatoes are just cooked and tender - test with the tip of a knife. Drain carefully, trying not to break any of the chips, and leave to cool completely. Can be prepared up to two days ahead and chilled until needed.
• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 9. Pour the oil into a sturdy, rimmed baking tray or shallow roasting tin and heat in the oven. Mix the flours with the baking powder, cayenne and some salt in a shallow dish and gently toss the chips in the floury mixture to coat, then leave in the mixture until needed.
• Carefully remove the pan from the oven - the oil should be shimmering - and lay the chips in a single layer in the pan. Use a thin, flexible spatula to gently turn the chips so they are all coated, then roast for 20 mins. Turn the chips again, then roast for another 10 minutes. Turn one final time, then cook for a futher 10 minutes until crisp and deep golden all over. Drain the chips onto kitchen paper and serve straight away.
