A couple of weeks ago, I went to a restaurant here in Spain where they served the very best chips/French fries I've ever had. I asked what the secret was and the man told me they were home-cooked from fresh potatoes (not frozen fries) in olive oil.
This surprised me because I was under the impression that deep frying in olive oil was not recommended.
Does anyone here deep fry chips/fries in olive oil and if so what would you recommend as regards time and temperature? I'd love to try and repeat the results. They're not the kind of thing one should eat too often, I imagine, but if you're going to have fries, they might as well be good ones!
Thanks for any advice.
