- Remove the chops and fry pan juices for another 3 minutes, then remove from the heat.
- Crispy Spiced Potatoes
- Combine salt, pepper, castor sugar and cayenne pepper in a small bowl and set aside.
- Pour enough oil into a deep pot to completely submerge the potatoes when frying.
- Place the pot over high heat, allowing the oil to reach a temperature suitable for deep frying.
- Cut potatoes in half and pat dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- Using tongs or a slotted spoon, gently place potatoes in the oil to avoid splatter.
- Deep-fry for 7 to 10 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Gently remove from oil and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
