Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Buckwheat Flour
  • 2-3 Potatoes (small)
  • 1/2 tsp Dry Mango Powder
  • Canola Oil (For Frying)
  • Water (for making batter)
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Red Pepper Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Thyme

Directions

  • 1. Peel and slice potatoes into very thin disks. Season with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp of red pepper powder and keep aside. For buckwheat batter, mix rest all ingredients except oil and water. Mix water little at a time to avoid making a too thin batter.
  • 2. Heat oil in a deep frying pan or fryer to 375 F. First dip seasoned potatoes (3-4 at a time or one-by-one) into buckwheat batter and then fry potato slices in hot oil for 3-4 minutes. You will see any exposed Ares of potato will start looking little golden crisp. This indicates fritters are ready. Drain on a paper towel. Repeat for rest of the potatoes in small batches. Dust some salt (optional) Or some salt based seasoning and serve hot.

I always saw buckwheat flour in farmer's market but never thought to use it for batter. I am thinking to mix more veggies along with potatoes for my twist on this buckwheat batter fried potatoes recipe. I liked your website and blog too
