Method
-
1
Peel garadu. Cut into 1 cm thick finger-sized strips or wedges. Toss with a pinch of turmeric.
-
2
Boil garadu strips in salted water for 6 to 8 minutes until just beginning to soften — not fully cooked.
-
3
They should hold their shape completely. Drain and dry completely on a tray — moisture causes oil to splatter.
-
4
Heat oil for deep frying on medium-high. Fry garadu strips in batches on medium-high for 4 to 5 minutes until deep golden and crispy on the outside.
-
5
The exterior should be crunchy and the interior soft.
-
6
Drain on paper towels.
-
7
While still hot toss with chaat masala, amchur, red chilli powder, black salt and a squeeze of lemon.
-
8
Garnish with fresh coriander. Serve immediately.
