Preheat oven to 190°C/ 375°F and boil a large saucepan of water. Peel and cut your chips, lightly salt your boiling water, then add chips to boiling water. Par-boil for 10 mins before draining. Leave par-boiled chips to steam for 2 mins, this releases moisture and helps them crisp up in the oven.
Transfer chips to a large baking tray and add coconut oil. Season generously, make sure each chip is coated in oil and then bake for 40-45 mins, flipping once or twice whilst baking, until golden and crispy.
Meanwhile, mix all spice blend ingredients together in a small bowl.
When chips are nearly ready, heat tsp of olive oil in non-stick pan on a high heat and onion, pepper and chillies. Stir fry for 5 mins until soft and slightly charred.
One chips are ready, pat down any excess oil and add them to pan with onion, pepper and chilli. Stir well and then add 1-2 tsp of your spice blend (you will have some leftover for another time!). Mix together until all chips have a light coating of aromatic spice blend
Garnish with chopped spring onions and chillies.
