Tips & Secrets

  • Washing the shredded potatoes until the water is clear is mandatory for achieving the most bright white and crispy texture.
  • Ensuring the potatoes are bone-dry before frying provides the absolute secret to achieving superior long-shelf-life crunch.
  • The addition of a little citric acid powder provides the essential tangy-kick lift.
  • Always fry the dry fruits separately to ensure the signature uniform doneness is maintained.
