POTATO - Is there anyone who doesn't love Potatoes?
Potatoes are hands down, one of the most versatile ingredients on the planet and they are perfectly delightful in any form. Tried this super crispy Aloo Tuk which is a Sindhi specialty. They are super crispy and perfect for evening snacks, the outset crust is so crisp whereas the inside is soft.
Ingredients:
- Baby Potatoes - 100 gram
- Oil - for deep frying
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper - 1 tsp
- Chat Masala - 1 tsp
- Red chilli powder - 1 tsp
- Fresh coriander leaves (optional)
- Lemon juice - 1 tsp
Process
1. Rinse and wash the potatoes nicely and cut them into two. In a bowl, pour water, add salt and dip these potatoes for sometime.
2. Boil them for 4-5 minutes and then with the help of knifes, press them a little to give a proper shape (flatten).
3. Heat oil in a wok for deep frying. Deep fry potatoes in medium heat till they looks crispy and tender. Fry them in batches. Remove from oil and let them cool. Fry them again in the same oil till they are more crisp and golden brown in color. While double frying, add a few potatoes at a time and avoid stirring unnecessary as the potatoes will break and soak too much oil. Also second time frying must be done on high heat so that the potatoes become crisp.
4. Transfer the double fried potatoes in a big bowl and add all the spices. Mix well by shaking the bowl till the potatoes are coated evenly with the spices. . Sprinkle with some fresh coriander leaves and serve hot with tea or coffee.
Note : You can serve these Aloo Tuk with simple Dal rice also. It goes well.
