Real home-made chips* (Slideshow version)

Real home-made chips*  : Photo of step #26

Stage 11/11 : 2 min.

Tip into a dish lined with a layer of absorbant paper, salt lightly and serve without delay.

Remarks

If you are used to frozen chips, you'll be amazed by the taste of these. It's a fair bit of work, but the result is worth it.

You can improve on stage 2 by putting the pre-cooked chips in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

Stage 1 and stage 2 can be done hours beforehand, even the previous day. You can freeze the chips after stage 1, maybe even after stage 2, but I've not yet tried this.

For me, nothing goes better with these chips than béarnaise sauce. In a good restaurant they are already great, but home made: a pure delight.
