Cookd masalas for potato
Method
Combine the maida, cornstarch, Kashmiri chilli powder, chaat masala, salt and water to form a batter.
In the meanwhile, you can prepare the topping mix. Mix chaat masala, black salt and red chilli powder together and set it aside.
Insert the skewer lengthwise into the centre of a potato. Cut the potato into a thin spiral carefully. Gently separate the potato slices from each other.
Using a ladle, pour the batter over the potato.
Fry it in oil over medium heat until it turns golden brown and crisp.
Immediately squeeze lemon juice over the fried potato. Sprinkle the previously prepared topping mix over the potato on all sides.
Top it with mayonnaise and chopped coriander leaves.
