Best 4 Dads Favourite Fried Potato Slices Recipes

DAD'S FAVOURITE FRIED POTATO SLICES

Steps:

• Wash, peel and slice a medium-sized potato into thin concentric circles.
• Make sure you slice the potato thin and not thick.
• Pour 2 1/2 cups of water in a bowl.
• Add salt to taste (2-3 tsps) and mix well.
• Add the potato slices to this salted water.
• Mix well.
• Keep aside for 10 minutes.
• In a medium sized bowl, make a thick batter with your besan flour, red chilli powder, baking soda, salt and 1 cup of water.
• Now drain out the water from the potato slices.
• Dip the slices of potato in the gramflour batter.
• Allow the slices to be coated with the batter on both sides.
• Heat oil in a frying pan while you are doing this.
• Once the oil is hot, and the slices are ready, drop them gently into the oil.
• I ALWAYS make it a point to lower the flame/heat when adding the slices of potato to the hot oil.
• I dont want ANY MORE spillovers or kitchen fires!
• Let the slices fry in the oil.
• Once the slices are golden brown on one side, turn over and allow them to fry the same way till they are golden brown on the other side.
• Remove from the pan once fried and drain the excess oil on a clean paper kitchen towel.
• Transfer to a serving plate.
• Serve immediately (HOT) with Tomato ketchup and white/potato bread.
• You can also serve this with green chutney.
• Enjoy!
• NOTE: The secret of making this very well is to slice the potato thin and not thick.
• If you slice the potato thick, then, the potato will not cook and remain raw even once fried!

CRISPY FRIED POTATO SLICES

Steps:

• Cook for 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are fork tender and not falling apart. Drain and let cool slightly.
• When cool enough to handle, cut the potatoes into slices and sprinke liberally with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil in a frying pan on a medium-high heat. Once hot add in a few potato slices at a time. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
• Remove from the oil and place on kitchen paper to drain. Repeat with the rest of the potato slices.
• Sprinkle with salt and garnish with fresh herbs to serve.

GRANNY'S FRIED POTATO SLICES

Steps:

• You have to wash the potatoes before using them and then either peel them or leave skin on, then slice them across width ways into slices.
• Mix the salt, baking, flour together in a mixing bowl, gradually add the water to it until it is the consistency of batter.
• Preheat enough cooking oil in the either deepest frying pan you have or deep fryer to properly cook the potato slices.
• Dip the potato slices into the batter you have made until coated on both sides and then place in the hot cooking oil and fry until golden brown and cooked. Then serve them.
