Aloo Bhujia

This is one recipe which i wanted to make for a long time. Actually my sister asked me to try this recipe, it is so easy to make and taste so crunchy and delicious..It has a different taste and flavour from the traditional oma podi.

The addition of boiled potatoes gives a nice crunchy and melt in mouth taste and texture to this.The addition of chat masala gives a nice aroma and tangy taste to this..
