Yeah I am feeling terrible as I write down these words, but then for some unavoidable reasons, I am taking a break from Blogging. For how long ?? Well it may be for just a week or a month or many…future is unseen and unpredictable. But if you…each Dear visitor of this blog, do your bit to keep this blog alive in my absence, by visiting it , digging out some old posted recipes here, Sharing your comments and views, despite of knowing that I may not be able to respond…then rest assured that I will be back with a bang, soon. Or else……sigh…. So keep those Emails pouring in my  Inbox, keep sending your recipes, drop in a line or two at sindhirasoi (at) gmail(dot) com, keep writing few flattering ( Lol) comments , keep updating me with the events hosted and the round ups, so that I don’t miss out all the fun while I am not here. I will surely go through all the mails  as and when possible Before I move on with a new chapter in my life, here is yet another Sindhi delicacy, though not a healthy one…but those of you, who relish potato chips , cakes, pastries etc, this is not more sinful than those. And taste wise….hmm…its a lovely way to enjoy potatoes Potato Took as we call this Double fried potato in Sindhi, is generally served with Kadhi Chaawal...another Sindhi Signature dish. But this is equally loved with Bhughe chaawal or any type of Biryani/Pulav too. The picture here shows, some sinful Took Patata , with vegetable Pulav , Papad, and some paneer burji, which was a leftover from previous meal. The burji doesnt actually goes with pulav, but since i was about to eat it anyway, why not flaunt it…lol Recipe of Took Patata( Double fried crisp Potato snack) ?? Well there is hardly any, still.. Ps: The plate above (in which food is served) travelled all the way from Uk to Mumbai. Thank You Dear Sk, for a thoughtful gift 🙂 Print Took Patata~Double fried potatoes and a Good Bye Prep time:  5 mins Cook time:  15 mins Total time:  20 mins Serves: 2-3 Ingredients Potatoes 4 Salt Turmeric powder ¼ tsp Coriander powder ½ tsp Red chilly powder ¼ tsp (Or as per taste) Amchoor powder(Dry mango powder) ¼ tsp Oil for deep frying Method Peel and cut potatoes into four pieces (Take medium sized potatoes) Slit them in criss- cross pattern, not very deep Add Salt to potatoes, and keep aside for 2- 4 minutes Rinse them with some water Heat oil in Kadai, or frying pan and gently slide the pieces in oil Fry on high heat for few seconds, lower the heat and put a lid over the pan, putting some extra weight (like heavy utensil etc) above it Let these cook until just done, and remove from oil Gently flatten these with palm of your hands (beware not to scald your hands) pressing these on a flat surface like rolling board or flat(back) side of a plate.Do not do this harshly or else the potato will crumble and turn into messy stuff. Skip this step if you are not comfortable with it Drop the pieces again in hot oil, frying on high heat, until crisp and golden brown Remove all the oil from pan( or remove potatoes, transfer the oil in some container and put the potatoes back in pan) Sprinkle some salt if needed, and all other dry masalas, mix well for 2-4 seconds Do not cover these with any lid, or else these will lose the crispness. So serve immediately and Relish.By the time you crib about calories, the potato TOOK will lose its crispness, so fret upon it later 🙂 2.2.1
