I I have been making these chips as and when I need them but decided to freeze some last week as I had made far too many. Stupidly I took them out and left them to defrost and when I got back from work they were grey/brown and looked like, slugs ha.
Should I cook them from frozen (boil then oven) or bin them and next time blanch them before freezing? I really hate peeling spuds....

Have you tried the tinned potatoes? They are so handy, cheap at 15p per tin and taste amazing! Saves on peeling spuds

Do you mean to make chips with the tinned pots? I don't normally buy tinned stuff.

Yes, you can cut them to whatever size you want or leave whole. They are already cooked so really you are only heating or browning them.

I'm the same though, I kept hearing about them but wouldn't try them they sounded disgusting but a friend made them one evening we were having a drink. Now I'm a little bit addicted to them

I think most of us are unsure about tinned potatoes but after hearing someone chat at group one night about using them in their air fryer for roast potatoes I gave them a go. Wouldn't say I'm 100% on them but certainly a quick alternative with only needing to spray them in fry light and they're ready in 15 mins. Give them a go, you may be surprised

You are a genius. I genuinely never thought of that. I have a few tins of potatoes at home that had been there fore ages. Guess what I'm doing with them!!

I mix together a bit of cumin,paprika and cajun spice then coat the tinned potatoes in it n spray with fry light and roast them and they are amazing!!

You can add lazy chilli or garlic as well, this is my favourite
