Do you cook chips aboard?

[Nostrodamus]

Lost me on the going out comment but fingers crossed for that supper soon!

Vic , your friend is coming to the marina on Wednesday if you are around to meet, greet and ply him with drink.

Since the advent of oven chips house fires have reduced dramatically. One of the reasons that the Fire Brigade is now accused of being overmanned. Deep fried chips are a luxury and we have them at home occasionally but done in a proper thermostatically controlled fryer. Have had oven chips on board and although not as good they are a passable substitute. Would never fry chips on board due to smell and grease everywhere, apart from the danger.

It was never the chip pan that was dangerous it was the person standing in front of it, or not standing in front of it more likely.

Am I the only one who cooked chips tonight?

Jeez that's a big glass of gin!

Years ago when flotilla yachts didn't even have fridges let alone ones that could do ice, I took an audio cassette (they did have players!) of the sound of ice clinking in a glass. Not quite the same somehow, even with a good slice of lemon...

Yes - I had tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches.

Since you ask.

Of course we fry chips. Why not ? We have a dedicated chip pan. Only the panic bosuns would make it a no no

Always have my bag of frozen chips sitting on top of swimbo's G & T ice. Have even cooked them underway when on engine in smooth waters.

Another vote here for the Tefal Actifry. Rather brilliant machines for cooking chips on board. Uses a tiny amount of oil and all the bits that need cleaning just click off and go in the dishwasher
