Jhuri Alu Bhaja

The favorite vegetable for bongs is potato or alu. We use alu in almost all our veg dishes. Even we can't think our non veg dishes also without alu, be it fish curry,mutton curry,chicken curry or biriyani. Alu is like omnipresent for us.So when it comes to any potato dish ask any bong which is their favorite alu dish and they will swear by jhuri alu bhaja. We love this dish more than McD french fries.It goes absolutely heavenly with rice and dal. So here goes the recipe.

Ingredients:

1. Potato
2. turmeric powder
3. salt
4. pepper powder
5. Mustard Oil for deep frying

Method:

Jhuri Alu Bhaja

1. peel the potatoes.
2. Grate them using one grater.
3. Put them in a sieve and wash thoroughly under running cold water.
4. Wait for sometime till the water drains put of the sieve.
5. Now add 1 tsp turmeric powder and mix well.
6. Heat mustard oil and fry the grated potatoes in batches.Do not add too much at one go otherwise they will stick together.Do not add salt this time.Salt will make water to come out and the outcome will not be so crispy.Fry till it becomes crisp.If it starts to get brownish then lower the flame and fry so that it will not burn.
7. Before serving sprinkle some salt and pepper powder.
