Indian Fried Potatoes
"This is a popular dish in the south of India. The rice flour makes the potatoes crispy. You can adjust the seasoning to suit your level of spiciness. It is great for breakfast or dinner. If you cool the potatoes before frying them, the dish comes out better. Timing does not include the cooling period."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>I live in Seattle, but have also lived in the DC area, the Mid-west, California, the South, and New England, as well as China and India plus travel a fair bit, so I have experienced a good number of cuisines and like them all. I eat mostly vegetarian and mostly do a lot of scratch cooking. I am known for my creative use of leftovers and whatever is in the fridge. Too bad those recipes can't go easily into Zaar.</p>
