Curly carrot French fries
These are reasonably high in carb in intensive terms, so certainly wouldn’t recommend as a daily eat, but as a snack when you are simply craving savoury snacks, these fit the bill nicely.

They seriously taste exactly like the "French fries chips" you get in packets except they are Opti intensive suitable. You do need a spiraliser or turning slicer for this recipe to get the curls !

Hi corina, I use the chefs avenue vegetable turner, it’s more expensive but handles carrot really well and is still going strong after 2 years, the hand held ones just don’t do carrot very well ! Joni
