I'll let the thread re-rail itself, I have nothing more to say, what a complete comedy routine regarding stereotypes of nationalities. I am out of this, please... as you were.

I love how you think our fish and chips are the best... Ill say I like chips, one of my favorite foods, but after I started making them myself from scratch (none of this frozen McCains rubbish), I have never once bought hot chips from anywhere since, I can't stand them. What we get from takeaways is absolute junk, prerolled in flour partially cooked and then frozen to have a final cook by the shop.

My EEVBlog DMM gets a good run each time I cook some chips as I use the thermal probe to monitor the temperature. The goal with chips is to drive the water out of the potato, water will not exceed 100C at room temp, and the oil wont get much hotter either until the water has been driven mostly off. Once it hits 120-130C they are pretty much done, take them and drain them, apply some salt to taste and you have your perfect chip. If you are like me or my wife and you like them real crunchy, wait a little longer till the temperature hits ~140C.

@djos - I am sorry but its simply true, and when I traveled to Europe a few years back I had store bought chips on a few occasions and found they are identical to what we have here, pre-cut pre-cooked chips rolled in flour then deep fried. The only difference was in what they considered tomato sauce.
