Crisp maker

[judimac]

I had one of these years ago! I think I got it from lakeland. Yes it did work but it took ages to slice the potatoes and much longer than it said to cook them . Eventually the plastic melted it got so hot

i usually just spray a plate with fry light and put my cut potatoe on it then spray the top of the potatoe and add seasoning yum yum xx

i have just had a search on the net and can't find any in the UK either, although I did find a recipe to make Microwave crisps without the little machine

Uncle Bill's Microwave Potato Chips - 47195 - Recipezaar

This recipe looks really good, i love crisps at the weekend and have had to avoid them!! Thanks

I made some last night using the slicer bit on my box grater and laying them on a plate with some frylight and oxo (as suggested above (thanks btw)). The ones that crisped up properly were lovely!! I can't wait until my crisper comes from Hong Kong... I'm not synning them as it is a bit of a faff and it is not like anyone would make batch after batch after batch and scoff the lot as it would take too long. I can eat far more of the fatbum chips and not syn them. Therefore, I think it is pretty safe to count them as free!!!

Has anyone received their crisp maker yet to give me a review? Im really interested I tried to slice and microwave some last nyt but mine were to potatoey!! LOL

i too have made some microwave crisps, with various end results form emmmm to errrrrr using the plate method...
little tip, dab the cut raw crisps with kitchen towel before adding frylight, it removes some of the moistness before microwaving

I've been making these in the micro for hubby's kids for years ...... its really easy - I just slice the potatoes on our V slicer, fry light a large plate, lay the potato slices on the plate, fry light them again and sprinkle with flavour (bovril cubes - now free - make fab beef crisps) and then bung in the micro on full power for a few minutes ....... just keep checking them until they're golden brown and crispy ....... they do turn quite quickly so you have to keep your eye on them ... but they're lovely!!

xx

Of course the V-slicer didn't think of that duh! Umm you know how you are with gadgets though are you ok?

Sorry!! I forgot to respond... and I did wait before trying!!
They were FANTASTIC!!
My hubby ate most of my first batch so I had to make more!!
I have made them a few times since.
I have made them with plain salt and with Aromat, which makes them taste like salt & vinegar. I want to get more flavourings too.
I have also tried spraying with fry light before popping them in and also without, as I forgot... and they both came out nice and crispy. It is a good investment!!

It's been 2 weeks to the day since I bought mine but ebay shows that it has been dispatched. I am desperate to try it.
