Chip pan chips.

I bought,or should I say mrs bought me a mini chip pan,cooks a portion of chip for one,i thought great,but ive never used it,hate oven chips,the wife has got one of those new fangled things where you put a tea spoon of oil in and they are quite nice,but nothing beats mums chips.
 
I find oven chips are healthier, as I find chip pan chips can be really greasy/oily.... on a slightly different note I do honestly believe thick cut chips should be abolished as they're fucking awful!
 
Get some decent chipping taters. Cut them into 1 inch thick chips. Boil them for five mins. Drain and let steam dry in the pan. Lather them with a good amount of olive oil and a little butter and loads of salt and pepper.

Cook them in a single layer, top shelf in a fully preheated oven at top temp. for 20 mins

Good as any chip pan chip.

If they are not then add a little more butter.

We do similar ... minus the butter .... lovely chips.
 
My Dad still uses a chip pan - had tea at my parents for the for the first time in ages last week and forgot how much i miss home made chips. I love them slightly over cooked and crispy with loads of salt and vinegar. Chip shop chips are garage these days - soggy beige sticks of potato and not proper chips. Oven chips are rank but we still buy them in we fancy an easy tea - I coat them in a little oil so they don't dry out as much.
 
I use a deep fat frier, which if you are using oil taste exaclty the same as a chip pan with less risk of buring the house down. No point having a chip pan unless you are putting lard or dripping in it, which my Mam still does and is the reason I have pie and chips every time I'm round for tea.
 
I have a deep fat fryer that I use for chips rather than a chip pan.

Absolute proper pain in the arse to clean, but worth it for chips that actually taste correctly.
