Aloo kay Pakoray


Ingredients

4 large Potatoes 
2 cups Corn Oil (for frying) 

For the Batter:

1 cup besan (chickpea flour
1/2 cup Water 
Teaspoon red chili powder 
Teaspoons cumin powder 
Cloves of crushed Garlic 
3 inches of crushed Ginger 
Salt 
2 tablespoons chopped Coriander 
1 tablespoons chopped green chili 



Directions: 

1 >Add water to the Besan. 
2 >Besan has a tendency to be very clumpy, so you should add just a few tablespoons at a time to keep the batter smooth. 
3 >Add the Chilli powder, cumin powder, garlic, ginger, salt and chopped coriander, green chili and stir the batter. 
4 >The potatoes should be sliced very thinly. 
5 >No thicker than 1/4 of an inch. 
6 >At this point test one slice of potato in the batter. 
7 >There should just be a thin coat of batter. 
8 >Heat the oil in a pan. 
9 >Use a larger frying pan so that you have more surface area. 
10 >The oil doesn't need to be too deep since the potato slices are very thin. 
11 >Dip the potato slices in the batter and fry them till they are golden brown. 
12 >Remove them from the oil with a slotted spoon and set them on a paper towel for a minute to soak up the excess oil.
