Healthy oven chips with sriracha aioli

Homemade oven chips are healthy, quick and super easy. Cut them however you fancy and sprinkle over your favourite seasonings.
Servings: 2

Ingredients

healthy oven chips

  • 2 large baking potatoes
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tbsp cornflour

sriracha aioli

  • 1/2 lemon juice only
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 200 ml cold-pressed oil
  • 3 tbsp sriracha chilli sauce or to taste

Instructions

for the chips

  • Preheat the oven to 200℃. Cut the potatoes into thin chips – no need to peel, there's lots of potassium in those delicious skins. Toss in a splash of oil and sprinkle over a little cornflour (this adds extra crispiness).
  • Heat a baking tray in a hot oven and arrange the fries on the hot tray in a single layer without touching. Roast for 30-40 minutes, turning once or twice so they cook evenly.

for the aioli

  • Juice the lemon, add the garlic to the lemon juice and set aside for 20 minutes – this effectively cooks the garlic. When the garlic is ready, add to a food processor with the egg yolks and a pinch of flaky salt. Whiz for a few seconds then start adding the oil – drip in one tiny drop at a time until the yolks have absorbed about a third of the oil and the mayonnaise has started to emulsify. Add the oil any quicker and the mayonnaise might split.
  • Add the sriracha, blend to combine, then taste to check the seasoning. Add more sriracha, lemon juice or salt as needed. Loosen with 1-2 tablespoons water if the mayonnaise is too thick.
  • Store in the fridge for 3-5 days.
