Method
- Preheat the oven to 200C/fan180C/gas 6. Slice the jersey royals lengthways into quarters. Cook in boiling salted water for 3-4 minutes, then drain well.
- Tip into a roasting tin, toss with the olive oil, then roast for 30-40 minutes until crispy.
- Meanwhile, put the egg yolks in a food processor with the garlic, saffron and white wine vinegar.
- Season, then whizz, slowly adding the olive oil to create a thick yellow aíoli (you’ll have more than you need). Add a good squeeze of lemon juice, then serve with the hot chips.
