I have seen loads of viral images of pizza topped fries all over the internet and I just had to recreate my own, Slimming World friendly, version! Mine has a syn value due to using proper pepperoni, but you could customise your toppings to make it syn free, such as chicken and vegetables. Don't be shy about adding toppings... the more speed food on top the better!

You will need:-
Method:-
Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C Fan/Gas 9. Peel the potatoes using a potato peeler and remove any blemishes or 'eyes'. Slice lengthwise into approx 1cm thick rectangular chips. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil. Add the chips and cook for 4 minutes. Drain and leave aside for 10 minutes to dry. Return the chips to the dry saucepan, cover with a lid and shake to "rough up" the edges of the chips
Place in an oven proof dish and spray with fry light, salt and pepper and bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
While the chips are cooking, prepare the sauce. To make the pizza sauce add the garlic to a frying pan and colour slightly, add the basil and the tomatoes and bring to the boil. Using the back of a wooden spoon, mush and squash the tomatoes as much as you can.
Season the sauce with salt and pepper. As soon as it comes to the boil, remove the pan from the heat. Strain the sauce through a coarse sieve into a bowl, using your wooden spoon to push any larger bits of tomato through, discard any left over garlic
Top the chips with pizza sauce and top with cheese and any other toppings
Place in the oven and bake until cheese is melted and golden
Serve with your choice of sides.
