I’ve mistakenly bought baking potatoes, now this has got me googling how I can turn them into chips in a chip pan but it appears the health police would prefer I put them in the oven, this has now got my mouth watering and I’ve got all these chip recipes and tips running around my head and then through all the confusion I thought I’d ask the best bunch of connoisseurs I could.

how’d you like your chip buttys? Butter the breadcake? Salt and vinegar? Fat chips? Thin chips? Which chip shop do you go to? When you cook them at home do you use chip pan or oven? Henderson’s on it? Ketchup? Hovis or warburtons?
 

First of all the oven can coco. Deep fry all the way.

Chip sized chips, not flat not fat, roughly square if a section view was available, atleast a cm/half an inch but less than 3/4 of an inch tall, that's fat chip territory, and as long as the potato is. Soak them in salted water, drain them, fry them.

Breadcake, buttered, chips on, plenty of salt and either vinegar or relish, preferably until the bread starts to disintegrate. Lovely.

Soaking them in salted water.... that’s a new one on me I’ll try that and come back to you.
 
Perfect chip butty?
White scuffle from Rotherham Market. Lurpak.
Chips from Broomheads at Crookes from about 1983.
Salt, vinegar & red sauce (still refuse to call it ketchup).

Whitby’s at Catcliffe currently chippy of choice & do a good one straight out of the shop - shame about the marg on the breadcake.

Home made in a chip pan are the best in my experience, but how many people have a chip pan these days? White breadcake or two thick slices of white bread, buttered, loads of salt. vinegar and tomato sauce - nowt else. Food heaven.

Breadcake with chipshop new spuds (soft greasy tasty) and plenty of tomato sauce.
 
Cut into chips, boil in water for 5-10 mins. Drain and allow to go cold. Boil in fat at 130 degrees until nearly done. Up temperature to 180 and do until golden brown.

The pertfect chip!:)
 
Red potatoes crinkle cut with pinch of salt and sunflower oil in an air fryer 20mins. Fresh large breadcake from local bakery.
Best butter, salt and lashings of vinegar and ketchup. nomnoms!
 
A second vote for broomheads at crooked for the chips. Plenty of salt and vinegar no sauce
 
Chips roughly 15mmx 100mm deep fried in the greasy black chip pan at the bottom of the pantry full of solid diet free lard!, chips to be emptied onto kitchen roll, just to soak up ablt of the grease, breadcake with plenty of butter, lots of salt and vinegar, until the bread soaks it up n gets moist, not sloppy!! Bit of ketchup on the side as a dip, n Bob's Fannys Aunt.

We do, used at least once a week.
It's got to be decommissioned for a short time due to industrial cleaning,(getting it back to silver instead of sticky dark brown)!
White spuds by the way.
 
Chips from Broomheads at Crookes from about 1983.

Are they not cold and slightly rank by now ?

Assault And Battered on London Road, simply the best.

Though if they cooked in lard they would be better.

I used to run the Broomhill Friary back in the day (year).

Maris Piper is the only way to go..

That is perfect except the bit about the air frier. What's an air fryer?

I suspect you know a thing or two about the science that is the chip butty.
 
Living on the wrong side of the hill and constantly hearing about individual sandwich sized loaves being described as barms, I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying reading about bread cakes. WTF is a barm anyway?

I’ve been for a few sit downs in Whitby’s, it is

I believe it’s attempted to be be passed off as a modern chip pan without the whole 3 litres of oil !
 
Pah, you lot have never had a chip butty. Get yersens an uncut loaf cut it in half get down to the local chippy, as you are walking scoop out the bread and eat it until only the crust remains, get the chippy to fill it with chips a few scraps can go down well too, add plenty of salt and vinegar or Hendo's to soften the crust up a bit and there you have the perfect chip butty, only trouble is there is no butter in it. ;)

Used to frequent Broomhill Friary back in my day (1986ish). School mate (George someone) worked behind the counter & after a skinful in the South Seas, we'd pop in for chips, cake & curry & get it for nowt. We'd hand over the cash & he'd give us the same back in change.
Then stagger back up Crookes. Happy days.
 

Uncut tiger bread from morrisons in store bakery, lurpak butter, good size king Edwards (not many places to get them now ) made into finger sized chips and cooked in beef dripping :D
Fookin hell just realised why I am a fat twat :(

Like your avatar Aston, you should get some suitable iron on transfer sheets print it off on that and then iron it onto a fav shirt/tshirt.

Now wrong with that chip butty either....:)
