Ingredients

  • Tapioca(Maragenasu) - 2 nos .
  • Cooking oil- Enough to deep fry
  • Salt- 1 tsp
  • Red chilly powder- 1 tsp

Instructions

Method

  • Peel the skin off from tapioca and wash it under running water. Let it dry. Using a sharp chips grater, slice the tapioca in to thin chips.
  • Next heat enough oil in a heavy bottom wok, when oil temperature is perfect (Like when you drop a slice, it should immediately raise to the surface), drop a batch of chips in to oil. Reduce flame and fry till the chips turn crisp. Once done, remove from oil using slotted ladle.
  • Drain the chips on a kitchen tissue paper. Sprinkle salt and chilly powder over it. Yummy home made tapioca chips are ready to munch.

Notes

  • Choose a grater which is sharp because tapioca is bit hard to grate.
  • Immersing the grated chips in water isn't necessary.
  • The oil temperature is very important to get the crispy chips.
  • While droping the chips, the oil should be hot. And when they are frying, flame should be reduced otherwise the chips become brown immediately.
  • If you drop the chips in to less hot oil, chips would turn soggy.
