Aloo tuk – double fried crispy potatoes and brinjal slices/wedges

Aloo tuk is a very popular signature dish of Sindhi cuisine. These aloo tuk are double fried crispy potatoes slices/wedges and can be served as a side dish, appetizer or as a snack.

Sindhi aloo tuk and baigan tuk is very easy to prepare and you can half cook them before and re fry them when needed.

You can make aloo took with any starchy potato but for best result try using chipsona aloo which are used for making potato chips or ask your vegetable vendor for the potato used for frying purpose . You can also use baby potatoes and make took without peeling them, crush and deep fry them  like roasted potatoes’.

How To Make Aloo Took-

first of all wash and peel the potatoes and chop to make big pieces . Heat oil and deep fry the potatoes on low to medium heat till they are 75% cooked . Drain the potatoes and then let them come to room temperature. In a bowl mix salt, chili powder and mango powder , you can also add some mint powder , chaat masala and hing in it.

keep aside this masala mix. now gently press the fried potato pieces with your palm or with the back of any bowl. Now again heat the oil and add the potato pieces and deep fry on high heat till they turn golden and crisp. Drain them from the oil and keep on a paper napkin and immediately sprinkle the maslaa mix and serve hot.

Sindhi baingan and aloo tuk are best served with dal,  sindhi kadhi and sai bhaji
