These chips are so fantastic, and far healthier than the deep-fried variety. I had these in Italy and couldn’t believe how tasty they were. The rosemary salt can be kept for months in a little airtight jar and has a fantastic intense flavour which is also great with chicken, pork chops, etc.

Ingredients

  1. 2 pounds large potatoes, cut into large chips 1 cm (1/2-inch) thick
  2. Olive oil
  3. 1 bulb garlic
  4. Freshly ground black pepper
  5. 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
  6. 1 lemon, zested
  7. 3 ounces sea salt

Instructions

  1. Place a baking tray in the oven and preheat it to 230 degrees C (450 degrees F).
  2. Parboil the potato chips, skin on, for about 10 minutes in boiling salted water.
  3. Heat some olive oil in a frying pan, smash the garlic bulb and chuck in the cloves, then add the potato chips. Toss in the oil and season with pepper. Bake on the preheated tray for 15 to 20 minutes until crispy and golden.
  4. Remove the leaves from the rosemary and put in the mortar with the lemon zest and salt. Bash up to make a green paste, adding more salt if it is too wet. Push through a sieve, and sprinkle on the chips to serve.

Pretty simple and straight forward. Very good, and a nice change. 
Sheila Williams
What an over worked recipe for Rosemary chips. Go elsewhere for the same result without the pretentiousness.
Lisa Hicks
These are positively our go to potatoes! We have served these to company, at wine tastings and even a catered event of 250 people, all to rave reviews. We are fixing these again as I write and are salivating with anticipation.

It tastes like legalese.

Excellent potatoes…probably the best I’ve had.
Tammy Kelley
These were so good even our daughter Ilya, a notoriously picky eater, ate them. We made them with Yukon Gold potatoes. Yummy!
