Healthy chippy frying high to batter the fat

A CAFE in Hirwaun has launched a new range of super-healthy chips.
The Chippy, on High Street, is serving up 94% fat-free fries to weight-conscious customers.
Their fried chips and battered fish have been separately analysed by a food nutritional laboratory.
Owner Lee Penaluna said the new healthy chips were a big step forward in helping people enjoy fries without piling on the pounds.
The Chippy was recently placed in the top three shops in Wales in the Independent Fish and Chip Shops section of the National Fish and Chip Shop of the Year competition 2012.
Owner Lee previously worked under TV chef Stephen Terry in a Michelin-starred restaurant.
He has owned The Chippy and The Cafe in the Cynon Valley since 2006.
A spokesman for the cafe said: "A recent customer survey gave us 99% for taste and quality for our food, this is down to the consistency and commitment of all the staff.
"Our staff know what the customer wants, they are customers themselves and appreciate the quality we produce.
"Returning 220kcals per 100g for fried chips and 238kcals for fried battered fish you can have a standard meal of our fabulous chips, battered fish and mushy peas at around 850 calories and only 32g of fat.
"This means it's around 94% fat free - a real bonus to those lovers of fish and chips."
