What Makes This Recipe Special
These crispy snacks are easy to make and satisfy your craving for something crunchy. They have a golden color and a perfect salty flavor that everyone enjoys. Plus, they use simple ingredients you likely have at home.
Step 1
Peel the potatoes and slice them as thinly as you can. If you want, use more potatoes to make a bigger batch. To keep the slices from turning brown, soak them in a bowl of water while you prep the rest.
Step 2
In another bowl, mix together some ground flour, salt, turmeric powder, chili flakes, cumin seeds, and chopped coriander leaves. Slowly add water and stir until you get a smooth batter. Then, sprinkle in a little baking soda and mix it all well.
Step 3
Heat some oil in a pan for frying. Dip each potato slice into the batter, making sure it’s coated well.
Step 4
Carefully drop the coated slices into the hot oil and fry them until they turn golden and crispy.
Step 5
Use a slotted spoon to take them out and drain on paper towels to get rid of excess oil.
Step 6
Serve your crispy potato chips warm with your favorite sauce and enjoy!
