Ingredients

  • 1 package frozen cassava pieces (about 4-5 pieces)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp red chilli powder
  • oil (for frying)

Instructions

  • Fill a large pot of water and add the frozen cassava root. Boil till they can be pierced easily with a fork (about 15 minutes).
  • Drain the cassava and allow it to cool for a few minutes till you can handle them. Chop into smaller pieces, like chunky fries.
  • Heat a large frying pan with a few tbsp of oil and fry the cassava chips, turning often, till golden brown all over.
  • As soon as they come out of the pan sprinkle salt and chilli powder on them.
  • Serve warm with some kebabs and ketchup!

Notes

Try sprinkling some tangy masala on them for an added flavour kick.
