Let's get cooking

2. To a bowl, add the all-purpose flour, corn flour, ginger garlic paste, red chili powder, salt, oil. Whisk the batter and add water little by little and whisk it till it again to make a smooth paste. Put the cut potatoes in the batter and coat it well. Deep fry the potatoes till crispy brown. Remove the potatoes and put on the tissue paper to soak the excess oil.

3. In a wok/ pan, add oil and once the oil is hot add the garlic and capsicum and stir fry till the garlic is golden brown. Now add vinegar, soy sauce, ketchup, and the red chili paste and stir together. Mix corn flour with 1/4 cup water to make a slurry and add this mixture in the wok and stir for a few seconds till it thickens.

4. Add the fried potato fingers and spring onion greens and toss together so that they are coated evenly in the sauce.
