Chili potato dry recipe is a very simple dish that can be made easily at home with very few ingredients. This dish does not call for any fancy ingredients except for for some sauces like tomato sauce, soya sauce, chili sauce which are very much used in Chinese cuisine.
Serve chili potato as a starter or as a side dish with fried rice. I served it with Chinese style fried rice. You can also try out chili paneer if you wish to. Dry chili potato tastes great as a starter and the gravy version tastes great wit fried rice.

how to make chili potato with step by step pics
1. Wash and peel the skin from potatoes. Slice them into wedges in the same way as we do for french fries. Soak them in cold water for 30 minutes.
2. After 30 minutes, drain the excess water from potatoes, and wipe them well with a kitchen towel to remove all the moisture from the potato pieces.
3. In a bowl, add corn flour, pepper powder, salt and mix well. Add the drained and wiped potato pieces to this bowl, and toss gently so that the mixture gets coated on the potatoes. Take care to remove all the water from potatoes, otherwise, it will form a batter and the mixture will not get coated well on the potato pieces.
4. Heat oil in a pan. When the oil is hot enough, add the potato pieces in batches and fry them on medium flame till they become golden brown color. When the potato pieces are half cooked, reduce the flame to low, to ensure that they get cooked evenly without getting burnt. Remove the potato pieces using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a kitchen tissue or an absorbent paper to remove excess oil. Keep them aside.o make chili potato 5.
