The BEST homemade healthy chips in the Actifry or airfryer

Whether you follow a diet or not you will love these homemade healthy chips. They are much healthier than the chip shop and full of flavour. So how do I make my perfect chips? It really is so simple.

They look good, don’t they? I can assure you they taste good too! So, what is my secret to chips full of flavour, that are crispy and nicely browned? It would be rude to keep my tips to myself. As you know, I always like to share so here you go.

The way to make the best homemade healthy chips ever

I use a Tefal Actifry because I love the way it has a paddle that keeps the chips moving as they cook. If you have another brand that doesn’t do that then be sure to keep tossing them in the pan to allow them to cook evenly. Cooking time may also vary with other air fryers.

The best potatoes I have found for chips are jacket potatoes but really I don’t think it matters too much. You can use Maris piper potatoes if you’d prefer. We like to use Sunflower Oil Frylight but again I don’t think it matters if you use a different flavour or variety.

I have tried many different flavourings whilst cooking chips both syn free and slightly synned options and whilst many are tasty I haven’t found anything as good as these. The definite favourite now is the SpiceNtice Gourmet chips and wedges sachet.

Alternative flavours for airfryer chips or chips in the actifry

A great alternative to a ready-mixed spice sachet like this is to use salt and pepper or some paprika for seasoning. Why not play around with your favourite flavours and see what you come up with?

Method

Cut potatoes into chips. I leave the skins on but you can peel them if you would prefer to.

Toss them into the Actifry or air fryer and spray well with Frylight (around 20 sprays for chips for 3/4 people)

Cook for 10 minutes

Open the lid and spray well again with Frylight

Sprinkle over the SpiceNtice seasoning sachet. I use a full sachet for 3/4 people but experiment with your preferences. You may like a little less seasoning.

Cook for a further 10 minutes

Open the lid and spray well again with Frylight

Cook for a further 10 minutes

Serve and Enjoy!
