  • Drain the water and let them cool down. Then add 1 tsp cornflour and 1 tsp rice flour, and coat the chips with it.
  • In a mixing bowl, add ½ cup maida, ½ cup rice flour, and salt. Add water gradually and make a medium-thick batter.
  • Coat the potato chips with the batter and add them into the oil. Fry the chips till they become crispy and golden brown from both sides.

Notes

  • Cut the potatoes into medium-thick chips.
  • Boil the potato chips for only 3 minutes, until they are 50% cooked. Do not overcook them.
  • Dry-coat the chips with cornflour and rice flour so the excess moisture from the boiled chips is absorbed.
  • Prepare a medium-thick batter with a coating consistency.
  • Fry the potato chips on a medium flame until they become crispy.
  • For the sauce, sauté the vegetables on a high flame.
  • Switch off the gas once the potato chips are coated with the sauce. Do not overcook them in the sauce, otherwise they will turn soggy.
