Spicy Indian Potatoes with Chilies

By Jolinda Hackett, About.com

Spicy Indian Potatoes with Chilies. This is an easy vegetarian and vegan Indian dish that really packs the heat. If you like your Indian food spicy, add a couple extra chilies, or cut back to reduce the spice a bit.

Ingredients:

  • 3 tbsp flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • water
  • 2 potatoes, chopped
  • oil for frying
  • 5 green chilies, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp chili sauce or hot sauce
  • 3 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1/2 tsp sugar
  • dash salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
  • 3 green onions, chopped

Preparation:

Combine the flour, 1/2 tsp salt and a bit of water in a bowl, adding just enough water to make a pancake-like batter.

Coat each potato piece with the batter and deep-fry in oil until golden brown.

In a separate skillet, heat the chilies, garlic soy sauce, chili sauce and tomato paste in a bit of oil, stirring well. Add the sugar, salt and pepper and the potatoes, and stir well to coat the potatoes with spices.

Remove from heat and garnish with cilantro and onions.
