This is one of my favourite appetizers and I found it and have it regularly after coming to this place. I can admit that slowly I started getting addicted to this dish. So whenever we go to restaurant my husband include this item as a starter even without asking my consent for that.. I have to admit that he is a guy who hates French Fries and I love it.. ? I am indebted to one manager of a restaurant over here to get the recipe of this appetizer. After having this chilly frites several times from the same restaurant in this place, I got the courage to ask the manager of the restaurant to ask for the recipe. With much pleasure he brought a paper and pen and started explaining and scribbling the recipe in to the paper. Hehe.. You know how much happy I was that day while going home with the recipe of my fav one. ? I should say here that I did some google search to get the recipe of this and I failed miserably in my attempt. I seriously doubt if there is any other name for this? Next comes the practical side of making it. I didnt wait for many days to do it. Its so great when you can cook the things you crave for!! The next day itself I tried this and thank God it came out awesome, I could say that the best chilly frites I have ever seen in my life both in look and taste!!
