How to Make Aaloo Fry Spicy Fried Potatoes
- Peel and wash 1 lb (450g) potatoes. Cut into 1-inch cubes.
- In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with 1 tsp turmeric powder, 1 tsp red chili powder (adjust to your spice preference), 1/2 tsp cumin powder, 1/2 tsp coriander powder, 1/4 tsp garam masala, and salt to taste. Ensure potatoes are evenly coated.
- Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large saucepan or wok over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is shimmering, add the spiced potatoes to the pan in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside but tender inside.
- Remove the potatoes from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Serve the Aloo Fry hot as a delicious side dish with your favorite dhal curry or other Indian dishes.
