You r the first one who posted video recipe of kenya chevdo I looking for so long .thank you so much .I HV one question my potatoes katri become red y this happened pl tell me any tips I live I. Canada.

[@MothersCookBook]

Hi Purvika , glad to know we can help . Please try frying it on lower flame , potatoes grated should now be too thin to fry .. And follow below process 👇 Peel and wash the potatoes. Grate them and soak them in cold water over night . Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the grated potatoes. By soaking them in salted water, it adds flavour to the potatoes plus helps to make the crisps crispy. In the morning: Wash the grated potatoes 2-3 times with cold water and then drain them and spread them on a clean dish cloth. Washing the grated potatoes removes the starch and it will not go dark.
