At that time when your stomach is growling, you could eat anything before the ‘hangry’ trait arrives! Chocolates, crisps, biscuits and anything that is unhealthy could all get eaten ending with a massive guilt trip. Root vegetable crisps are a perfect snack to keep when the hunger strikes. You just need to make in advance!

Ingredients:

• Any preferred Root Vegetables. Pumpkin, Butternut Squash, Sweet Potato, Beetroot, Carrots, Parsnips etc
• Nico’s Polle Polle Spice Mix
• Olive Oil
• Rock Salt

Method:

Wash all the vegetables so that all the dirt is scrubbed off. Pat dry and finely slice. We used the slicing side of a normal grater but if you are making a large batch you may want to use the food processor with the slicer plate. On a large baking tray, grease with a little olive oil and place the sliced root vegetables in a single layer. Drizzle over more olive oil and sprinkle over the Nicos Polle Polle Spice Mix and rock salt if you need to. Bake in the oven on 100ºC on the lowest shelf for approximately 20minutes, turning half way. They may be cooked sooner depending on the thickness of the vegetables so be mindful of over cooking the vegetables. Once removed from the oven, they will still be soft, so transfer carefully onto kitchen paper and cool down. This will leave the vegetables crispy, ready for those attacks of hunger. Be warned, they are so moreish you might not be able to save any!
