Inspired by Conrad’s quiet moments fishing at his estate in Mobland, this Chicken, Chips and Curry Mayo dish mirrors the calm before the chaos. With golden crispy chicken, buttery greens, and a nostalgic chip shop curry mayo, it’s a British classic with unexpected depth. Just like the series, where danger lurks beneath still waters.

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide chips (no need to peel).
Pop the chips onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.
Sandwich each chicken breast between two pieces of baking paper. Pop onto a board, bash with a rolling pin until they're 1-2 cm thick and season. TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh.
Crack the egg (see pantry for amount) into a medium bowl and whisk.
Put the breadcrumbs into another bowl and season with the salt (see pantry for amount) and pepper.
Dip the chicken into the egg and then the breadcrumbs, ensuring it's completely coated. Transfer to a clean plate. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat and discard any excess egg.
Pop a large frying pan on high heat and add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan. TIP: You want the oil to be hot so the chicken fries properly - heat for 2-3 mins before you add the chicken.
Once hot, lay the chicken in the pan and cook until crispy and golden, 5-6 mins each side.
Once cooked, transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper. IMPORTANT: Cook so there's no pink in the middle of the chicken.
Meanwhile, cut the lemon into wedges.
In a small bowl, combine the korma curry paste, mayo and honey (see pantry for amount).
Mix well and set aside for later- this is your chippy-style curried mayo!
Once the chicken is cooked, wipe out the pan. Return the (now empty) pan on medium high heat with a drizzle of oil.
Once hot, add the young pea pods and peas and stir-fry until tender, 2-3 mins.
Remove from the heat and stir in a knob of butter (if you have any). Add a squeeze of lemon and season with salt and pepper.
When everything's ready, share the crispy chicken, chips and greens between plates. Dollop the curried mayo alongside.
Serve with any remaining lemon wedges for squeezing over the chicken to finish.
