Place the pan on a medium heat, bring the oil to a simmer and give the chips a stir with a wooden spoon. Increase the heat so the oil bubbles really quickly and fry the chips, stirring occasionally so they dont stick, until crisp and golden the whole process will take 15-20 mins. When they are done, scoop out with a slotted spoon onto a plate lined with kitchen paper and set aside.

Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir

Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir are great choices for Steak. After all, beef and red wine are a classic combination. Generally, leaner steaks go well with light or medium-bodied reds, such as pinot noir or merlot, while fattier steaks can handle a bold red, such as cabernet sauvingnon. One wine you could try is Matanzas Creek Alexander Valley Merlot. It has 4.3 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 28 dollars.

A medium purple color. Flavors of satsuma plum, dark chocolate covered raspberries, and allspice aromas primarily. On the palate, this is a classic Merlot with good concentration. It is savory and medium bodied with velvety tannins. Homemade cherry pie tart and sandal wood aromas are perceived easily when tasting.
