How do you make chips not soggy?
Chef's answer
Make sure that the oven settings are not too hot as you don't want them to get over-cooked. Allow the chips to get warm for about 5-10 minutes, take them out and wait for them to cool down. You'll then notice that all the moisture has evaporated, giving you crisp chips back again.
