This spicy fried potato recipe can be used for making a morning snack for breakfast in combination with a bread or paratha. The spices used in this recipe are in crushed form which gives a slightly enhanced flavor when mixed with potatoes. In this recipe tomato can also be added with potatoes which will result in sour taste and will become even more tasty. But the the fried potato will not remain crispy when cooked with tomatoes - that is why I prefer to make these fried potatoes without it. Anyway, if you really want to add tomatoes, add them after onions have been half cooked. The preparation time for this spicy fried potato is just 20 minutes and is served for 3-4 persons.

Ingredients:

5 medium size potatoes (cut into tin slices)
2 medium size onions (finely chopped)
1 tbsp crushed red chili
1 tbsp crushed cumin
1 tsp crushed black pepper
Salt to taste
1/2 cup mustard oil

Cooking Instructions:

Take a frying pan, heat oil and fry potatoes in it on medium heat for 8-10 minutes until all the potatoes become completely soft and a bit crispy. You have to stir constantly while frying so that the potatos fry evenly and would not stick into the pan. After that add onions and fry with potatoes till they become light golden in color and keep stirring during frying. Now add all the crushed spices, red chili, cumin, black pepper, salt and cook for 2-3 minutes more so that all the flavors of spices absorb in the potato. Now its time to turn off the flame and then drain out the excess oil using a strainer. Your Spicy fried potato dish is ready to be served with paratha or flat bread.
