  1. Potato FRIES

    Place a deep pan over medium heat with oil about 4-5 cm. When hot, fry the chips until crispy and cooked through, 15-20 minutes (shifting as they colour). Drain on a paper towel. Alternatively: Preheat the oven to 200°C. Generously cover the base of a roasting tray in oil. Add the Potato chips, season, and toss until coated. Spread out in a single layer and roast in the hot oven until cooked through and crispy, 30-35 minutes. At the halfway mark, gently shift the chips and drain any excess oil. Return to the oven for the remaining roasting time.

  2. CRUMB

    In a shallow dish, whisk 1 egg with 1 tbsp of water. Prepare two more shallow dishes: one containing the rub & flour (seasoned lightly) and the other containing the crumb. Pat the schnitzel dry with some paper towel and season. Coat the schnitzel in the rub & flour first, then in the egg, and lastly in the crumb. When passing through the crumb, press it into the meat so it sticks and coats evenly.

  3. GOLDEN SCHNITTY

    Return the pan to a medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the crumbed schnitzel for 1-2 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan, drain on paper towel and season.

  4. SOME PREP

    In a small bowl, combine the Mayo with the ½ of the chopped chives. Loosen with a splash of water, and season.

  5. IT’S THAT TIME!

    Plate up the chips, side with the crumbed schnitzel, and drizzle over the herby Mayo. Garnish with the remaining chives, and dig in, Chef!
