Why are my homemade chips soggy?
Chef's answer
On contact with the oil, the moisture on the surface of the chip, or any other food item, immediately vaporises, sending out volcanic jets of steam that spatter the oil. The exterior of the chip is now dry, mummified into a hard crust. ... At the same time, oil will seep in, making the food leaden and soggy.
