Taste and texture nowhere near as nice as proper chips imho

Air Fryers are just more convenient and possibly faster

Now we use lard in our deep fat fryer .. not just because the chips / ‘roast’ potatoes taste fabulous but its the method used by my old mum and my grandfather.. both lived to around 90

Lard is a much safer fat than oil, especially seed oils.
I use Lard, dripping or ghee for frying that needs a high temperature and I use lard for making pastry. Like you, that's how my gran used to cook.

Interesting .. thank you


Times were hard back in the day but they didn’t have so much processed food or takeaways to tempt them as we do now
