Thick Potato fry - (Urulai kizhangu varuval)

Thick Potato fry - preparation time 15 to 20 mins
Potato is all time favourite food. This can be taken as snacks or as side dish for variety rice. My mom use to prepare and give lime rice along with this thick potato fry for my lunch box. Potato contains Vitamin C , other vitamins like b1, minerals like potassium ,etc. Rich in carbohydrate, dietary fibre.

Ingredients:-
Potato - 2
Oil - to deep fry
Chili powder - 1/2 tsp or 1 tsp
Kadalai mavu(Besan flour)- 2 tbsp
Arisi mavu (Rice flour) - 3 tbsp
Asafoetida (Perunkayam) - pinch
Salt - To taste
Water - to make thick paste

Preparation method:-
Wash the potato well. If you want you can wash the potato in hot water and cut with skin or peel the skin and cut. Cut the potato into four and make into slice (it will be like half moon). If you want you can cut to thick strips. Pieces should be 3 times thick than potato chips.
Wash the pieces in water so the starch will be removed.
Make paste with besan flour, rice flour, chili, salt, Asafoetida and little water. The paste has to be thick so it can be coated mildly over the potato.
Now heat oil and deep fry the coated potato in less flame then only the potato will be cooked. Drain the oil and put in tissue paper so, excess oil will be removed.
This will be yummy and crisp outside but, soft inside. Try it out surely you will like it.
