    I miss Chinese food SO much, it was my fav. There's no restaurants/take outs in my area who provide gluten free options.

    These don’t exist anywhere near me. I had never heard of them until I visited a friend in Liverpool in 2010 and they ordered it and told me I had to order it because it would blow my mind. I thought “what ever” but my god it blew my mind.

  7. John Gibb

    i'm making these today, first time i've ever bought msg, love your vids and your mum's brilliant oh and so are you.

  8. frustin

    can you just grind your own black pepper? i get through a lot so buy pepper corns in 1kg bags. is it the same thing?

  9. Lgthrfwy Ggr

    salt half tbs
    chilli flakes 2tbs
    olive oil 1 tbs
    garlic powder 1tbs
    black pepper 2tbs
    ginger 1tbs
    garam masala 2tbs

    The s&p chips from my local takeaway seem to have a red(ish) oil/sauce on them. To me they’re miles better than the dry type but I can’t work out how they make them. Any ideas anyone?

  17. Jamie Armitage

    Thank you for the recipe. I didn't have chunky chips nor green peppers so used red peppers and lidl fries… but it turned out great! Love you guys, your video's are fantastic and insightful!! ❤️

  18. A C

    I swear! I absolutely love watching your videos. They really make me giggle and love how you both have such a good relationship! Plus love the recipe's!!!! ⭐

    I have tried this recipe 3x now lol and my chips still turn out mushy, how can I avoid this next time? 🙂

    Side note- other than the texture of my chips, it still tasted great :3

  22. Egbert Smith

    I've just made this and it's delicious. I've tried to make salt and pepper chips before using a dodgy recipe off a popular website and it was awful. I now know that SAND GINGER IS THE BEST FLAVOUR EVER. There are no substitutes for it.

  23. FactsOnl_y

    I will use my air fryer to do the chips. However, would I be okay to use sunflower oil to pan fry the vegetables, garlic and seasoning? or is vegetable oil a must?

  24. Bobby

    never even heard of this dish before this vid. not done our way, looked around a few of our chinese takeaways and not on menu, croydon south london area… so gonna have to try to do myself, thank you for posting this great recipe

  25. tom owen

  28. Paul Roach

    Hi guys would like to say a massive thank you for all your content, I'm a dad of 4 and ordering take away is sometimes super expensive and I'm shocking at cooking, the wife does it all. I love these chips when ordering take away.

    I'm glad I came across your super easy to follow videos.

    Just let you know I have just completed the chips and they was unbelievable I can't belive how good they was, I've purchased all the ingredients for the following from your videos.

    Pepper chili chips
    Chicken satay on skewers
    Crispy chili chicken
    Egg fried rice.

    I need to get a deep fat frier to make it even easier!

    Keep up the good work.
