Hello everyone! This time, we're sharing with all the potato fries lovers of MyFood Myanmar a recipe for making crispy fries combined with the sweetness of honey and the spiciness of chili.

Ingredients

  • 5 potatoes (peeled and cut into strips)
  • Oil for frying
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon pounded garlic
  • 1 teaspoon pounded chili

  • 3 tablespoons corn flour, 3 tablespoons wheat flour, and 2 teaspoons salt
  • 3 tablespoons wheat flour, 3 tablespoons corn flour, 1/4 teaspoon paprika powder, and 3 tablespoons water

Ingredients needed for the sauce

  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 tablespoon garlic (thinly sliced)
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 3 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 1 teaspoon vinegar and 1 teaspoon fish sauce

  • 2 tablespoons tomato ketchup
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon chili paste
  • Cornstarch slurry (1 teaspoon corn flour mixed with 4 tablespoons water)
  • 2 tablespoons thinly sliced spring onion

Step-by-step instructions

1. In a bowl, mix together 2 teaspoons chili powder, pounded garlic, pounded chili, 3 tablespoons corn flour, 3 tablespoons wheat flour, and salt until well combined. Then add the potato strips and knead well until evenly coated.

2. Heat oil in a pot. Once the oil is hot, add the potato strips and fry until about 50% cooked. Then remove onto a plate and let cool.

3. In another bowl, mix 3 tablespoons wheat flour, 3 tablespoons corn flour, paprika powder, and water together until well combined.

Then dip the fried potato strips into this batter and coat well.

4. Fry the potato strips again in hot oil until golden brown. Then remove onto a plate.

5. Next, we need to make the sauce. Add 2 tablespoons oil to a pot. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant. Add chili powder and sesame seeds and stir for about 1 minute. Add vinegar, fish sauce, ketchup, honey, and chili paste and stir until well combined. Then add the cornstarch slurry and simmer until the sauce thickens.

6. Once the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, add the fried potato strips and spring onion, and mix well until evenly coated. Then it can be removed from the heat.

You can sprinkle some extra sesame seeds and spring onion on top.

And there you have it - delicious, crispy sweet and spicy potato fries!
