Garlicky Potato Sandwich Bhajiya
by Tarla Dalal
These scrumptious bhajiyas are made in a unique way by batter-coating and frying potato slices sandwiched with garlic chutney. This gives you an ideal combination of crunch and finger-licking flavour in one handy snack.
Make sure you boil the potato slices with salt so that they don’t taste bland. Also make sure you slice the potatoes into an optimal thickness, neither too thin nor thick, so that they will cook well but not disintegrate. The Garlicky Potato Sandwich Bhajiya served with sweet chutney and a cup of hot chai is a perfect evening snack .
