Chilli Garlic Fries ( Burgers and Smoothies)
by Tarla Dalal

An exotic accompaniment that can add zing even to the plainest of burgers, it is the smart use of melted butter and chopped garlic that sets the chilli garlic fries apart from regular french fries. Sprinkle the chilli powder and butter-garlic mixture on the fries immediately after deep-frying and toss it well so that it coats the fries well from all sides. And… get ready for a real feast!
