    | 1. Wash, peel and slice a medium-sized potato into thin concentric circles. | 2. Make sure you slice the potato thin and not thick. | 3. Pour 2 1/2 cups of water in a bowl. | 4. Add salt to taste (2-3 tsps) and mix well. | 5. Add the potato slices to this salted water. | 6. Mix well. | 7. Keep aside for 10 minutes. | 8. In a medium sized bowl, make a thick batter with your besan flour, red chilli powder, baking soda, salt and 1 cup of water. | 9. Now drain out the water from the potato slices. | 10. Dip the slices of potato in the gramflour batter. | 11. Allow the slices to be coated with the batter on both sides. | 12. Heat oil in a frying pan while you are doing this. | 13. Once the oil is hot, and the slices are ready, drop them gently into the oil. | 14. I ALWAYS make it a point to lower the flame/heat when adding the slices of potato to the hot oil. | 15. I dont want ANY MORE spillovers or kitchen fires! | 16. Let the slices fry in the oil. | 17. Once the slices are golden brown on one side, turn over and allow them to fry the same way till they are golden brown on the other side. | 18. Remove from the pan once fried and drain the excess oil on a clean paper kitchen towel. | 19. Transfer to a serving plate. | 20. Serve immediately (HOT) with Tomato ketchup and white/potato bread. | 21. You can also serve this with green chutney. | 22. Enjoy! | 23. NOTE: The secret of making this very well is to slice the potato thin and not thick. | 24. If you slice the potato thick, then, the potato will not cook and remain raw even once fried! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
