About

This recipe is a healthier twist on the fried potatoes you can find in the Indo-Chinese restaurants in Kolkata and can be made in an air fryer instead of the oven if you like. You can buy store-bought Sichuan sauce, which is found at most large supermarkets, or make your own with the recipe which requires sourcing Sichuan peppercorns.
