Delicious AND waste free? Now we&#8217;re talking.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients (Serves 4):<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>200g potato peelings (roughly 6 large potatoes)<\/li>\n<li>Vegetable oil (enough to half-fill a deep frying pan)<\/li>\n<li>Your choice of seasoning, we like: rosemary &amp; garlic salt, BBQ fajita or tikka spice<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Method (10 mins):<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Peel 6 large potatoes and sit the skins in a bowl of kitchen paper to soak up excess moisture. You can also use saved potato skins from your last roast &#8211; just store the peels in an airtight container filled with cold water in the fridge.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2: <\/strong>While the skins are drying, heat a large, wide based frying pan half-filled with vegetable oil<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3: <\/strong>Once the oil is hot, carefully drop the skins into the pan so they sizzle on contact with the oil &#8211; careful of hot splashes!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4: <\/strong>Fry the potato skins until they curl, go crispy &amp; turn golden brown, then remove from the oil<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip:\u00a0<\/strong>If you&#8217;d prefer a lighter option, try adding your skins to a tray with a drizzle of oil and baking them till golden instead. No sizzle, same flavour!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 5: <\/strong>Once fried, add the skins to a bowl with kitchen roll to drain off any excess oil<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 6: <\/strong>Season the skins by tossing in your chosen spice mix while they&#8217;re still warm, or just top with salt then tuck in!<\/p>\n<h2>What is Gousto?<\/h2>\n<p>Dinner, but not as you know it.
