Directions Pakistani Batter-Fried Potatoes
Directions
-
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Whisk gram flour, salt, cayenne pepper, cumin seeds, and baking powder together in a bowl. Stir lukewarm water into flour mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, until batter has a thick pancake-batter consistency.
Dip potato slices in batter until well-coated.
Working in batches, cook coated potatoes in hot oil, turning once, until golden and crispy, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer potatoes to a paper-towel lined plate to drain.
