INGREDIENTS: ( For finger chips)
Potatoes - 1/2 kg.
Salt - as per taste
Pepper powder - 1 tsp.
Oil - 2 cups
METHOD: Wash and peel potatoes. Cut into finger long pieces and immerse in a vessel of water. Dissolve salt in 4 tablespoons of water.
Take out a handful from water while frying and pat it dry using a clean towel. Heat oil, and deep fry the potatoes. Sprinkle little salt water while frying. Don't worry it will not burst. The salt spreads evenly when done like this. It will be like in the photo.
Take out when crispy and transfer it to a plate. Use kitchen tissue to remove excess oil.
Repeat with all the cut potatoes. Sprinkle pepper powder and serve hot.

ReplyDeleteI love finger chips! They can be eaten at any moment. I'd ratter homemade food, so I think your blog and recipe are so nice. Thanks for this shanthi!
ReplyDeletesounds too good...The fingers made through above method will be soft. You need new crop of potatoes for the same. The fingers should be first frozen at -18 degree. Then they should be fried directly . The oil should be at high temp.
