English chip shop style chips are a classic snack all over the UK, and are typically deep-fried to achieve the perfect crunch. However, this recipe offers a healthier alternative by baking the chips in the oven.

1.	Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2.	Peel the potatoes and cut them into thick sticks.
3.	Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the potatoes. Boil for about 5 minutes, then drain and let cool.
4.	In a bowl, mix together the canola oil and vinegar. Add the cooled potatoes and toss well to coat.
5.	Season the potatoes with salt and pepper.
6.	Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet.
7.	Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and crispy, flipping the potatoes once halfway through cooking.
