Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Potatoes
- 1 large Onion
- 2 small Red chillies
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 4 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin fries, about 1/4 inch thick. Rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Slice the onion into thin strips and finely chop the red chillies. Mince the garlic cloves and set everything aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potato fries in a single layer and cook, turning occasionally, until golden and crispy. This should take about 15-20 minutes. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Once the fries are crispy, transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt while they’re hot.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the sliced onion. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and golden brown.
Add the chopped chillies and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Return the fries to the skillet and toss with the onion, chilli, and garlic mixture until well coated. Season with salt, black pepper, and paprika to taste.
Transfer the fries to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy!
