Crispy Plantain Chips/ Vazhakai Chips


I found these plantains yesterday in the Indian store and I couldn't stop myself from buying these really fresh plantains. Usually I make roast out of it. But this time i decided to make chips. It came out very well. We liked it. Its so simple to make and its delicious. 

Ingredients:

Raw banana/ Plaintain/ Vazhaikai - 3
Salt - to taste
Asafoetida - 1/4 tsp
Oil - for deep frying

Preparation

Slice the plantain into thin slices. 

Deep fry them in batches 

Fry it until golden brown and transfer it into a bowl with paper towel. Excess oil will be absorbed by the paper towel. 

Immediately transfer it to another air tight container and add salt and asafoetida and mix well when it is warm. When we mix it warm, the salt and asafoetida sticks to the chips well. 

Adding asafoetida is optional. But try it with asafoetida. Your chips will taste great with it. 


See you later!!!
