Golden potato slices

These are usually served with a chutney. A good choice is Cilantro Chutney.

4 med. potatoes
3/4 c. flour
1/2 c. water
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground turmeric
1/4 tsp. ground red pepper
1 egg
Canola (or other vegetable) oil
Salt
Cilantro Chutney

Heat 1 in. salted water (1/2 tsp. salt to 1 c. water) to boiling. Add potatoes. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer until almost tender, about 10 mins. Drain; cool.

Mix flour, the 1/2 c. water, salt, turmeric, red pepper and egg with fork until smooth. Cover and let stand 1/2 an hour.

Heat 1 to 1 1/2 in. oil to 375 degrees fahrenheit.

Cut potatoes into 1/4-in. slices. Dip potato slices into batter, allowing excess batter to drip back into bowl. Fry a few potato slices at a time, turning occasionally, until golden brown, about 2 mins. Remove with slotted spoon. Drain; sprinkle and distribute with salt.
