For today, I have deep-fried chips made with Potato. I had plans for making puffs, somehow all the three days I have been trying, I just couldn't make it. So that will be following for another day.
When I was thinking of this snack, I had a problem with finding the right mold. I wanted a thin flat one, that would give a ribbon pakoda style. I couldn't find it and ended up with this shape. I thought of baking it, then as time was short, I deep fried it. These are supposed to be consumed right away as they don't stay crispy for long. However, after frying, serve hot with sauce, it's so delicious!

Suma Gandlur says
Must have been an yummy snack. These are like potato murukku, right? Then how come they don't stay crunchy when they cool down?
Srivalli says
Suma, Even I was surprised about it, since I was held up with something else I didn't take time to look into why it didn't say crispy. I had added enough rice flour as well. I think since the potato was more sweeter, it turned that way, I could be wrong..:)..but konda loved it when it was hot and it was crispy, will make it sometime again to check it out..
