SW chips + salt question

[lotte's_getting_healthy]

Do you par boil your chips? And if so for how long and then how long do you roast for?

Normally when I've made chips, I've just walked them in he overn for 40mins but that's with more oil and not frylight.

Also, I've always used piri piri salt to season (this stuff: http://www.tesco.com/groceries/product/details/?id=277971543 )
Is this free or would I need to syn it??

Thanks.xx

Hiya
I usually just throw them in the oven and expect them to take 40-50 mins. Without the oil, using FryLight instead, they don't go 'crunchy' but do crisp up given enough time. I scrub the spuds and leave the skins on to help with this!
I tried a new method on Friday of microwaving the chipped potatoes for about 6 mins in total (mixing every 2 mins) and they were much quicker in the oven- around 20 mins.
Looking at the ingredients in the Nando's salt, I'd say it's free. The only thing I could see that might contain syns would be the anti-caking agent, but the amount in the pot, and the amount you'd use each time, would be so little I wouldn't bother.

I'm at a loss to see how SW say the chips will cook in 15-20 mins. I've just looked at mine and they are as raw as at 20 mins. I've now turned the oven up and added another 10 mins to the time.
