Method
Preparation
- 1
- 2
Soak the Chips
Let the chips soak in the cold water for at least 30 minutes. This step helps to achieve a crispier texture when frying.
Cooking
- 3
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) for baking the chips after frying.
- 4
Heat the Beef Dripping
In a large frying pan or deep fryer, heat the beef dripping over medium-high heat until it's hot and shimmering, about 5-7 minutes.
- 5
Dry the Chips
Once the chips have soaked, drain them and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. This ensures that they fry well without splattering.
- 6
Fry the Chips
Carefully place a handful of the dried chips into the hot beef dripping. Fry them in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

Drain and Season
Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to remove the chips from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat. While still hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.

Bake the Chips
Transfer the fried chips to a baking sheet and place them in the preheated oven for 10 minutes to keep them warm and extra crispy.
