Ocean Basket, the national chain of family seafood restaurants, has introduced a new type of chip – Lamb Weston Stealth Fries – to its menu.
What makes this addition really hot is a light coating of potato starch that enhances the potato flavour, keeps the chips hotter, ensures that less oil is absorbed in the preparation process and maintains crispness longer than regular fries.
The coating is said to have no allergens and the chips can be cooked in a convection oven or deep fried.
Lamb Weston has been in the food business since 1950, operates over a dozen plants worldwide and is recognised globally for its innovation. While the company’s products are sold in over 100 countries on all continents, Ocean Basket is the first to offer Stealth Fries in South Africa.
With restaurants all over South African and in Cyprus and Mauritius, Ocean Basket sees the new chips as a selling tool for its franchisees.
