For Gravy:
1 tablespoon Oil
1 tablespoon White Sesame Seeds

1 tablespoon finely chopped Garlic
2 Green Chilli, cut lengthwise

Salt, to taste
2 tablespoons Tomato Ketchup
1 tablespoon Green/Red Chilli Sauce
1 teaspoon Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon Cornstarch (cornflour) + 4 tablespoons Water

Notes for Crispy Potatoes:
  • First, prepare the gravy.
  • Then fry the potatoes
  • Reheat the gravy and add fried potatoes to them. You can also double fry the potato strips for crispy texture.
Directions:
  1. step-1
    Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1/2 inch thick long strips. Cut them evenly.
  2. step-2
    Pour 3-4 cups water in deep pot or a saucepan and put it over medium flame. Add potato strips and 1/2 teaspoon salt and bring it to a boil. Once the water starts boiling, cook the potato strips for 5-6 minutes.
  3. step-3
    Turn off the flame. Remove the potato strips using a slotted spoon to drain excess water and transfer to a large bowl (or transfer the potato strips to a colander to drain excess water).
  4. step-4
    Take 1/4 cup cornstarch(corn flour) or rice flour, 1/4 cup maida (plain flour) and salt in a large mixing bowl. Pour water little by little (approx. 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons) and mix well to make thick batter.
  5. step-5
    Add partially cooked potato strips. Mix well to coat all the potato strips evenly.
  6. step-6
    Heat oil in a frying pan over medium flame. When the oil is medium hot, add potato strips one by one and fry them in a single or two batches (depending on the size of a frying pan).
  7. step-7
    Fry them until crispy and light golden from outside. Remove them in a plate.
  8. step-8
    Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a pan over low-medium flame. add 1 tablespoon white sesame seeds, 1/2 teaspoon red chilli flakes, 1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic, 2 green chilli, 3-4 sliced green onion (spring onion) (add only white part).
  9. step-9
    Sauté them for 30 seconds over medium flame.
  10. step-10
    Add 1/4 cup sliced Capsicum (green bell pepper) and salt. Sauté for a minute.
  11. step-11
    Add 2 tablespoons tomato ketchup, 1 tablespoon green chilli sauce (or red chilli sauce) and 1 teaspoon soy sauce. Mix well. Turn off the flame.
  12. step-12
    Mix 1 teaspoon cornstarch (cornflour) with 4 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Add cornstarch-water mixture.
  13. step-13
    Mix well and cook until the mixture turns thick for 1-2 minutes over high flame. Turn off the flame.
  14. step-14
    Add fried potato strips and a pinch of black pepper powder. Mix well.
  15. step-15
    Add green parts of spring onion.
  16. step-16
    Mix well. Chilli Potato is ready for serving. Serve it immediately and enjoy!
Tips and Variations:
  • Cut the potato strips uniformly to fry them evenly from all the sides.
  • For Crispy Potato Strips – Double fry the potato strips and serve immediately after adding them to the gravy.
  • For Honey Chilli Potato – Add 1-2 tablespoons honey in the last step (after turning off the flame) and mix well.
  • Variation – Use Tofu or Paneer instead of potato strips. Either deep fry them (tofu/paneer) or shallow fry them in a non-stick pan before adding to the gravy.
Taste: Spicy
Serving Ideas: Serve chilli potato as an afternoon snack or as a starter in the party.  It can be also served as a side dish with hakka noodles or vegetable fried rice.
