Instructions
Method to Make Batata Kaap
In a plate, mix the rice flour, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, and salt.
Set aside.
To a large vessel, add about 3 cups of water.
Peel the potatoes and slice them into thin slices (about 1/8" thick).
As you slice the potatoes, put them in the water.
After all potatoes are sliced, heat a pan or tava.
Add some oil and spread on the whole surface.
Turn the heat down to low-medium.
Take a few slices of potato out of the water.
Using a kitchen towel, dry the potato slices slightly.
We need a little moisture so that the rice flour sticks to the surface of the slice.
Place the slices in the seasoned rice flour.
Ensure that both sides of the potato slices are well-coated with the rice flour.
Place the potato slices on the tava and let them fry till the face touching the pan starts to brown.
Flip the potato slices over.
Drizzle a few drops of oil in the pan, if required.
Continue to pan-fry them till the flip slices start to brown.
Repeat till all the potato slices are fried.
Serve hot with
Varan Bhaat
or
Amti Bhaat
.
OR
Enjoy as a hot snack.
Notes
Feeling adventurous? Add some Chaat Masala to the rice flour. :)
Yo can also make something similar with Brinjals (Vangi Kaap).
