The thicker the chip, the less fat it absorbs during cooking Weight for weight, homemade thick-cut chips contain around half the fat of thinner cut French fries. Oven chips are a good option if you're cooking chips at home. Fish and Chips are still very popular.
Fish has a reputation of being healthy, and with potatoes makes a filling nutritious meal.
Fried in batter though, it can contain a lot of fat. So have some bread or ask for mushy peas or baked beans to fill you up and get the balance right. Ask what fat or oil your local chippy uses for frying. If they use unsaturated oils at the right temperature, your fish and chips will contain less fat and be healthier. This is because they're often part cooked in advance and then 'refreshed' by quickly frying them again, when they are ready to be served.
