What you need:
- Baby potatoes – about 5-6
- Oil – 2 tbsp
- Cumin seeds – 1 tbsp
- Salt
- Red chili powder – 1/2 tsp
- Brown sugar – 1 tbsp
- All spice powder -1 tsp
- Shangrila tomato ketchup - 1 tsp
- Shangrila Imli Ginger sauce – 2 tbsp or half a cup of imli water
- For garnishing: Coriander leaves, mint leaves, green chillies and curry leaves
What to do:
Peel and boil baby potatoes, strain all water and keep aside. In a pan, pour oil and add cumin seeds, curry leaves, and a bit of all spice powder. Let it sputter for few seconds.
Add in coriander powder, salt, red chili powder or flakes (whatever you prefer) and give it all a little stir for about 10 seconds.
Add the potatoes now along with the Shangrila Imli Ginger sauce and brown sugar. In case you don't have sauces or chutneys in stock, use regular imli pulp infused in about half a cup of water.
Cook on a high flame and let the imli water get soaked up by the potatoes and form a thick syrupy base. In case you’re using imli chutney, add a little water at this stage so you don't end up burning the potatoes.
Add your greens: coriander leaves, mint leaves, curry leaves (more if you’re a curry leaf fan like me) and some raw sliced green chillies only if you can stand the heat.
Taste and adjust whatever you’re not happy with.
Saucy Hot Wings
What you need:
- Wings - skinned, about 8 to 10 pieces
- Eggs - 2, beaten
- All purpose flour - 4 tbsp
- Cornflour - 4 thbsp
- Salt
- Black and white peppers - 1/4 tsp each
- Milk - few drops
- Worcestershire sauce - 3+3 tbsp
- Shangrila soy sauce - 3 tbsp
- Shangrila garlic chilli sauce - 4 tbsp
- Honey - 1.5 tsp
- Garlic - 4-5 cloves
- Shangrila Synthetic Vinegar - 2 drops
- Oil
What to do:
Marination: In a bowl, add eggs, worcestershire sauce (3tbsp), all purpose flour, cornflour, salt, peppers and mix. Fold with a few drops of milk. Make sure the batter is not too runny. Dip wings and marinate for about 15 minutes to an hour, ideally in a refrigerator. Marination time depends on how quickly you need to serve the wings.
Frying process: Dip each of the marinated wings in dry all purpose flour and deep fry in hot oil. Keep aside once all turn golden brown.
Sauce: Lightly oil a pan and stir fry garlic cut in slices. Once golden brown, take the pan off the stove and add in Shangrila garlic chilli sauce, Shangrila soy sauce, worcestershire sauce, salt, honey and the peppers.
Cook on low flame till everything bubbles up. Add fried wings to the sauce and mix for a minute. Dish out and serve.
Our recommendation: Serve all three meals with a side of fries, traditional pakoras and tomato ketchup.
