Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams macaroni pasta
- 500 ml vegetable oil (for frying)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Bring a medium-sized pot of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni pasta and cook for 6-7 minutes until al dente. Drain the pasta and spread it out on a clean kitchen towel to dry completely.
In a small bowl, mix together the flour, curry powder, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat. Test the oil by dropping in a small piece of pasta—if it bubbles and floats to the surface, the oil is ready.
Once the macaroni is completely dry, toss it in the flour and spice mixture until evenly coated. Shake off any excess flour before frying.
Carefully add the coated macaroni to the hot oil in small batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until crisp and golden brown.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the crisps from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Allow the crisps to cool completely. Serve immediately for maximum crunch, or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
