Ingredients

  • 350 g Chips ( about 12.3 oz ) Frozen oven chips or fresh chips or fries

Notes

  • Chips- We usually use frozen oven chips for this recipe. Feel free to use any of your favourite fresh chips, frozen chips or fries for this recipe.
  • Curry powder - You can try with Chaat masala, Madras curry powder or garam masala. Adjust the masala mild or hot according to your preference. I used hot curry powder in this recipe. 
  • Chicken powder - Add chicken powder for extra umami flavour but it's totally optional. You can omit it or swap it with caster sugar or msg. 
  • Oil - Use neutral flavour vegetable oil for deep frying the chips or bake in the oven by spraying a bit of cooking oil. 
  • Servings - You can serve up to 4 people as an appetizer.
