Nigella Lawson has shared a genius hack for cooking perfect fries at home, which she first revealed during the second lockdown in September. The TV cook posted a photo of her 'Tuscan Fries' on Instagram, describing her method as 'unorthodox but effective'.
Her secret involves placing raw, chipped potatoes into a pan of cold oil before heating it up and cooking the fries. Lawson insists that this technique produces 'oil-free fries' rather than greasy chips, and that 'it sounds crazy, but it works'.
The recipe, posted on her bio page, includes potatoes, vegetable oil, garlic, fresh herbs and sea salt. Fans have praised the method, with one commenting that the fries 'became my favourite' and another calling them 'a revelation'.
