I unfurl a bundle of memories every time I munch on these crispy chops. There are many such unnamed food stalls on the street of Odisha  selling Aloo Chops.
All you need is Potato , Gram flour and a few spices to prepare at home.

I have added Ginger & Garlic paste here. This is the typical village style  preparation where I grew up. The batter consistency is not so thick or thin.
Many love a thick coating batter but I love the thin one. Gram flour and rice flour is used to prepare the batter.Rice flour adds a nice crunch & texture.
Potato fritters are perfect snack in winter.

Local market is flooded with Colourful  seasonal produces. I got a bunch of raddish yesterday.
After frying the Chops , I served it as a chaat. Added thin slices of fresh radish , chopped cucumber and Onions. At the end added dollop of kasundi aka mustard sauce . It was a flavour bomb plate.
I love my chaat really spicy. There was a good amount of chopped green chillies in my plate.
