Best oven chip?

[ColdAsIce]

I checked the thread history but it's been a while since this was discussed I don't have an air fryer unforuantely so having to rely on tradional oven baked chips. What's the best at the moment?

I like Mccain home fries, their naked chips and Co-op (not frozen) triple cooked thick cut chips. Co-op spicy wedges are okay too.

When it comes to wedges I think the McCain slightly spiced ones are top tier! Always need an extra 5-10 minutes cooking times though.

Albert Bartlett Rooster chips are my goto. Get lovely and crispy.

I reckon they are all pretty horrible if I'm honest.

You just can't beat deep frying for chips.

I'd just have rice over oven chips for carbs, or mash/boiled potatoes etc, lots of alternatives.

Everyone knows this. They probably asked which oven chips because they're healthier than fried.

I tried these the other day, very nice.

The best chips aren’t chips at all, they’re Birds Eye hash brown mini waffles.

Seconded. Like all oven chips, the suggested cooking time is way too short, but as long as you ignore that and just cook them until they're crispy, they're really nice.

I like McCain home crinkles.

Probably not going to help you much but the left over chips I bring home from work and then re-cook in the air fryer are epic!!

this tbh tried over last few years to get a decent bag of oven chips and 99.9 percent are always garbage. tripple cooked mccain ones were sorta passable but ended up just doing it the proper way and getting a new fryer and doing em in oil. nothing beats this tbh.

They do look pretty epic to be fair.. Where can they be found?

EDIT: Answered my own question.. Aldi it is..

Four seasons are excellent we get the skin on seasoned ones, better than McCain, the cooking instructions are always lies always need a extra five minutes regardless of brand.

Crinkle cut - you get better taste because they have a larger surface area. I've tried them all but I honestly think the best are ones from Aldi & Lidl. very cheap too compared to Mc Cain or Aunt Bessies

 

[robfosters]

I always use a mister to spray my chips with a little oil. Really crisps them up.

 

[gingergundog]

Have been using Mcain french fries for a while, they are ok, they do a job. I have a deep fryer but tbh I cant be bothered to clean it most of the time, not to mention the amount of oil needed.

These, 20 mins in the air fryer.

They're good but they're no chip replacement.
