TAIPPAN BBQ: Kartoffen – 175g

The secret to next-level chips

Taippan BBQ's Kartoffen is a savoury herb-and-spice sprinkle built for spuds in every form. All-natural and made in Australia — the shaker that turns ordinary chips into the good stuff.

The flavour

Savoury onion and garlic lead with a chicken-salt-style moreishness, warm paprika and turmeric bring golden depth, and a hint of celery seed rounds it out. Pure comfort, no heat.

How to cook with it

• Shake generously over hot chips or wedges the second they leave the oil, while they're still glistening, so every crystal sticks.
• Toss through roast potatoes with oil before they go in the oven.
• Stir a spoonful through mash or potato bake for instant savoury depth.
• Dust over roast chicken or fold into breadcrumbs for schnitzel.

In the shaker

A fine, golden-tan powder — turmeric gives it a warm glow. It coats evenly and clings to anything freshly oiled or fried.

The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

Careful — a jar of this near the fryer never lasts the week. The trick is to hit your chips the second they leave the oil, while they're still glistening, so every crystal grabs on. Dunk them in Boomas Boomtang BBQ Sauce or a dollop of Uncle Mungos Habanero Ketchup and you've basically re-invented the takeaway shop. Smuggler-approved.
