Tips:

  • To make the perfect aloo phujia batter, use a combination of besan (gram flour), rice flour, salt, red chili powder, cumin seeds, coriander powder, and baking soda. The batter should be thick enough to coat the potato slices evenly.
  • To get crispy aloo phujia, make sure the oil is hot enough before frying the potato slices. The ideal temperature for frying is between 350°F and 375°F.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the potato slices. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and becoming soggy.
  • Fry the potato slices in batches until they are golden brown and crispy. Drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  • Serve the aloo phujia hot with green chutney or tamarind chutney.
