Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Potatoes
- 1.5 liters Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Chaat masala
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
- 1 medium Lime
Instructions
Peel and cut the potatoes into thick sticks, about 1/3-inch thick.
Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and soak for 15 minutes to remove excess starch.
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly using a clean kitchen towel.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large, heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C).
Fry the potatoes in batches, for about 3-4 minutes until they are a light golden color, then remove them and drain on paper towels. This is the first fry.
Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C) for the second fry.
Refry the potatoes in batches until they are crispy and golden brown, about 3-4 minutes, then remove and drain again on paper towels.
While the fries are still hot, toss them with salt, red chili powder, cumin, coriander, garam masala, turmeric, and chaat masala in a large bowl until evenly coated.
Chop the cilantro finely and sprinkle over the seasoned fries.
Squeeze lime juice over the fries and toss them gently.
Serve the masala fries hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
