Induction Crisps! I think.....

[FatFighters]

My friend told me that they are selling vegetable crisps in Audi Stores in the UK and after trying parsnip chips the other day I was inspired! I got a pack and if you split the 100g bag into smaller 13g bags there around 4g Carbs per bag. There are two flavors parsnips in black pepper and mixed veg in salt (only one I like) unfortunatly it is a mix of sweet potatoes, beetroot, parsnip and carrots none of which are on the acceptable list Am I wrong can I have these?? on induction.

If not then I'll be turnip crisping tommorow! useing my potatoe peeler to make my own!

Turnip Chips/Fries - I found a recipe that says to chip them then soak the in a cup of cream and water to cover in a bowl for around 30+ min apparently this takes away any weird taste and make them more like chips, worked for me and my kids! although slow fry them or they taste like raw potatoes!

Sweet potaoe and carrots come much later so you should not be eating them on induction. Anything you can make on your own is much better for your health as well as you way of eating (woe)

Doh! I knew it was too good to be true. I assume the parsnip ones are okay, they need more salt for me as the black pepper is really overwhelming.

I'l going to try parnip chips today I'm going to make them with a potatoe peeler then soak in some cream and water, then deep fry and add salt while draining.

Fingers crossed they will be great and induction friendly I'll post in a few hours if they came out okay

Hey, where's this recipe for crisps? I'd like to try it. Turnips are allowed on induction right?

I am interested in how you quit smoking

Parsnips arent allowed on induction - sorry!

One of my fave veggies and cant wait to get to the starchy rung to have them again!

So my turnip crisp turned out GREAT!

I used:
1 Turnip (peeled)
1/2 cup of double cream (optional)
Water to cover (optional)
Oil to deep fry
Salt (to taste)

I used my food processors slice funcion and slice a whole peeled turnip. I then soaked them in cream and water (although I'm not sure if its needed, but I read its takes away any bitter flavour) I then deep fried them and as soon as they browned, took them out and covered lightly with salt and seperated into small bags for later. YUMMY!

If you have some parmesan and onion powder, maybe make cheese and onion?

So after this sucess followed same recipe but chipped them and cubed them and boiled for 20 mins. With the chips I deep fried them and with the cubes I cooked in meat dripping in the oven.

I am a really awkward eater who before atkins wouldnt even look at a turnip....now it looks like a turnip has saved me

Turnips are best faux potatoe i have found, a little more chewy but still prettay darn good.

Will be trying mash turnips next!!

p.s. I used paul mckennas tapping technique to quit smoking. I couldnt even last 15 mins without a cig but went competly cold turkey with patches and never looked back...in fact was easy! I watched his 'I will make you thin' programme and he shows you the technique which can stop cravings, and can be used for stopping smoking...i used it and it worked even if i did look a bit silly. For a description of the technique, let me know

Hello,

The turnip crisps sound nice - mash turnip is good for a side or on top of a oveny pie type dish. I mash turnips and cauliflower together once cooked and throw in cream and butter. Yum

I also have to say I love the name Fatfighters people have probably already asked this but is it Little Britain inspired?
