Masala French Fries, Based on a recipe from www manjulaskitchen com My DH found this recipe after searching the Internet for crispy French fries to include a technique that makes them explode; this particular recipe piqued his interest and now these are my favorite homemade French fries! These arent DHs favorites because they didnt explode! Hes SOL, I guess! The site says they are great with cocktails or as an appetizer Give DH another cocktail! Lol! You can also make them a few hours before serving; just heat the fries in oven at 350F for seven to ten minutes before serving Variations: 1) replace dry mint with dry fenugreek leaves; 2) feel free to experiment! For citric acid we used lemon juice although the next time (tomorrow Im hearing from DH) well use the Vitamin C powder (ascorbic acid) that I purchased for cooking Story: when DH asked me the first time he made these what he could use for citric acid I immediately thought liquid, not knowing the batter required it in powder form I was at my desk on food com after all, sheesh After showing him the powder form tonight, now he wants to try these again! Tomorrow! Okay, enough with our family drama, heres the recipe , Based on a recipe from www manjulaskitchen com My DH found this recipe after searching the Internet for crispy French fries to include a technique that makes them explode; this particular recipe piqued his interest and now these are my favorite homemade French fries!
