How do I stop the chips from looking burnt. I did as it said and coated them in oil and put on 180 for 20 mins. It is my first attempt but if someone could advise. I also kept shaking them too after every 6 mins.
Thank you everyone for your help. For some reason I’ve been blocked for 24 hours as breach of something by just replying to you with a thank you but people who have called me names and made fun of all your help are not blocked. Being told to use my common sense and I’m a dummy who can’t cook chips. I was only asking for some advice not sure why some feel they have to be so rude. But again I thank all the lovely ones of you that really helped me.
