Baked Crispy Masala Potatoes
- Thoroughly wash and scrub the potatoes under running water.

- Thinly slice the potatoes with a knife or use a mandolin. Rinse them with warm water a couple of times.
- Soak the sliced potatoes in hot water for 5 to 15 minutes. This will help cook crispy potatoes.
- Preheat the oven to 400F. Spray a large baking sheet with oil or line it with aluminum foil.
- Drain the water and pat dry the potato slices completely. Drizzle oil on potatoes and toss them well.
- Add salt, turmeric, cumin-coriander, and Kashmiri chili powder for smokey potatoes. Sprinkle chili powder after baking for non-smokey flavors. Toss and combine the spices.
- Transfer the potato slices to a lined baking sheet and spread them evenly. If needed spread them on two baking sheets.
