Curry and chips.. Brilliant..
A fantastic invention.. Not just for the late night revellers.. Or teenage kids hanging out.. Or those in Northern English towns.. Big in eire too!
This is not quite the styrofoam cup of yellow gloopiness.. Poured over spanking hot salty and vinegary chips..
This is a pimped version perhaps..
Roasted chicken thighs .. With Japanese curry sauce.. Mixed peppers and onion and petit pois.. All boiled up..
The chips are cooked four ways .. Four ways? Why? Because I can..
First the potatoes.. They are fresh from my pal Jacks garden .. King Edwards ..
Cut with the crinkle cut chipper
Boiled, cooled, baked, cooled , fried, kinda cooled , and fried again.. Drained on ikea paper.. Ahem..
Dressed with Japanese umboshi vinegar, it has all the salt and vinegar flavours with a little sour note..
Lovely..
Posh curry and chips..

Curry and chips is so English. I’ve never really had it anywhere else, but why not make it myself. I like your formula for the chips : boil, bake, fry, fry with a cool in between each. I haven’t quite used this method – something close, but will give this a try. Have you ever tried them in duck fat? Anyway, a winning combination and beautiful greens growing too.

Suet is my usual choice – and easier to find, and less expensive, but have been wanting to try it in duck fat. Will do some day.

You can put them in the bags and leave the bags ‘hidden’ somewhere outside. You will be surprised that they grow pretty much anywhere! Ignore the rules.. Just plant em
