Instructions
 

Prepare the Potatoes:

  • Peel and cut the potatoes into chips.
  • Fry the potato chips in hot oil until they are slightly brown and a bit crunchy.
  • Drain the fried potato chips on a paper towel to remove excess oil.

Prepare the Masala:

  • Finely chop the coriander leaves and stalks. Set aside half of the chopped coriander for garnish.
  • In a separate pan, heat some oil over medium heat.
  • Add half of the chopped coriander leaves and stalks to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of cumin powder, 1 tablespoon of black pepper, ½ teaspoon of cayenne pepper, and 1 tablespoon of ground coriander to the pan. Stir well to combine.
  • Add the grated tomatoes and minced garlic cloves to the pan. Stir to mix all the ingredients.
  • Pour in a small amount of hot water to help the masala cook and prevent it from sticking to the pan. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add more water if the mixture becomes too dry.

Combine Fries with Masala

  • Add the fried potato chips to the pan with the masala mixture.
  • Stir well to ensure the fries are coated with the masala.
  • Let the fries cook with the masala for about 2 minutes, allowing them to soak up the flavors.

Final Touch

  • Add the remaining chopped coriander leaves to the pan.
  • Give everything a good mix to combine the coriander with the fries and masala.

Serve

  • Transfer the Masala Fries to a serving dish.
  • Enjoy your delicious Masala Fries as a snack or side dish!

Notes

  • Adjust Spice Level: Feel free to adjust the cayenne pepper based on your heat preference.
  • Serving Suggestions: These Masala Fries are perfect when paired with a dipping sauce like garlic mayo or ketchup for added flavor.
