I am yet to find a person who would say "NO" to potatoes. For most of us, potato fry is more than a comfort food. Usually I make potato fry on the stove top, but this time I tried it in the oven. Result ?!?!?! - Perfect & evenly roasted spicy & crispy potato curry, that too with very less oil !!!! What more do you need ?!?!
Only after this, I realized that making potato fry in the oven is one of the easiest things to do!! I am also planning to try okra fry / eggplant fry in a similar way sometime soon.
Ingredients
Medium sized potatoes - 6-8 nos (I used yukon gold. This recipe should work for other varieties too)
Red chilli powder - 2-3 tsp (adjust to your spice level)
Hing - 1-2 tsp
Salt - to taste
Olive oil - 1-2 tbsp
Method
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Farenheit.
Peel outer layer of potatoes & chop them into cubes of equal size (about 1 inch). Lay them in a single layer on a non-stick sheet tray.
Drizzle 1-2 tbsp of olive oil over the potatoes. Sprinkle red chilli powder, salt & hing. Toss the potatoes with your hands until you've got all the potatoes coated with oil & spices.
Return it to the oven and bake for a total time of 20 mins or until desired crispiness (look out for brown crispy outer layer), stirring once in between (after 10 mins).
Enjoy!
Standard snack back then for us by Anand as I am not a potato fan. We would use the red skin one from costco with the skin on
