DAD'S FAVOURITE FRIED POTATO SLICES

Steps:

• Wash, peel and slice a medium-sized potato into thin concentric circles.
• Make sure you slice the potato thin and not thick.
• Pour 2 1/2 cups of water in a bowl.
• Add salt to taste (2-3 tsps) and mix well.
• Add the potato slices to this salted water.
• Mix well.
• Keep aside for 10 minutes.
• In a medium sized bowl, make a thick batter with your besan flour, red chilli powder, baking soda, salt and 1 cup of water.
• Now drain out the water from the potato slices.
• Dip the slices of potato in the gramflour batter.
• Allow the slices to be coated with the batter on both sides.
• Heat oil in a frying pan while you are doing this.
• Once the oil is hot, and the slices are ready, drop them gently into the oil.
• I ALWAYS make it a point to lower the flame/heat when adding the slices of potato to the hot oil.
• I dont want ANY MORE spillovers or kitchen fires!
• Let the slices fry in the oil.
• Once the slices are golden brown on one side, turn over and allow them to fry the same way till they are golden brown on the other side.
• Remove from the pan once fried and drain the excess oil on a clean paper kitchen towel.
• Transfer to a serving plate.
• Serve immediately (HOT) with Tomato ketchup and white/potato bread.
• You can also serve this with green chutney.
• Enjoy!
• NOTE: The secret of making this very well is to slice the potato thin and not thick.
• If you slice the potato thick, then, the potato will not cook and remain raw even once fried!
