Potato is the standard staple food available in almost all Indian kitchens. It is versatile, can be added to any vegetable, and does not interfere with the characteristic features of the vegetable it is mixed with. That's why it is loved by all. Even if it stands alone, it remains attractive. Not just vegetables, potatoes can be eaten in a number of ways but they are most likeable as chips. There are several ways in which you can make chips. The best thing about potato chips is they can be stored for a long time.
So, if you make potato chips at home on a weekend, then your snack cravings for the rest of the working days are sorted. Just fry these raw chips and store them in a jar. You can also have them on the move. Smooth, they just vanish inside the mouth.
