(Mikrowellen)-Ofen-Pommes-Frites-Röster


Explanation:
Also zunächst mal sind die "oven chips" in England nur "eine" Form der Kartoffel-Pommes-Frites (Pommes-Frites heißen die Dinger in Deutschland). Daneben gibt es noch "crinkle chips" und andere. Die Deutschen machen da, glaube ich keinen so großen Unterschied. Bei denen sind "chips" einfach "Ofen-Pommes-Frites". Bei Deinem Satz scheint irgend etwas nicht ganz in Ordnung zu sein. Also kann ich keine fertige Übersetzung liefern. Nur einige Ausdrücke als Anstoß:
"oven chip cooker" = "Röster für Ofen-Pommes-Frites"
"base" = "Boden" oder "Grundplatte"

Kleine Korrektur zur Erklärung: \"Ofen-Pommes-Frites\" im Gegensatz zu in Fett gebratenen Pommes.
