A local Mediterranean restaurant offers some of the best fried potatoes I've ever eaten.
There are two options: medium cut potato rounds and large cut potato rounds, and the size describes the diameter of the slices of potato that are then fried.
The larger ones often end up in a super state where half of one is thin and crispy like an American "chip" (a UK crisp) while the other is thick and fluffy like an American fry (UK chip).
@nyquildotorg I get nostalgic for select food items we were served for "school dinners" (lunches in UK primary school). One dish I often pine over was the "lamb, gravy, and roast potatoes" which were golden brown, slightly crispy but still sort of soft on the interior. The gravy would soak into the potato like a sponge.
@nyquildotorg In secondary school, one time, the Latin teacher was subbing in for the Religious Education teacher, and a mystery was someone kept hitting him with spitballs every time his back was turned.
Mr Lowther was very interested in solving that one.
@nyquildotorg I just looked at the school's website and it turns out my old Physics teacher, and also "homeroom" in my senior year, is now Headmaster. Congrats Mr Demptster!
