Crispy on the outside and soft inside, these millet fries are flavored with tangy piri piri masala, making them a perfect snack for evenings, parties, or weekend cravings.

Why Sorghum Is a Smart Choice for Fries

Preparation Method: Sorghum Piri Piri French Fries

Boil the Water
Pour water into a vessel and bring it to a boil until bubbles appear.

Cook the Sorghum Rawa
Add sorghum idli rawa, salt, and chaat masala to the boiling water. Cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring continuously until it thickens.

Prepare the Dough
Transfer the cooked mixture to a bowl. Add mashed potato, a pinch of salt, and additional chaat masala if required. Knead into a soft, smooth dough.

Shape the Fries
Divide the dough into equal portions. Roll each portion on a flat surface and cut into rectangular strip shapes, similar to French fries.

Deep Fry
Heat oil in a pan. Add a few dough strips at a time and deep fry on medium heat until lightly browned and crispy on both sides.

Drain Excess Oil
Remove the fries and place them on butter paper or absorbent tissue.

Season & Serve
Sprinkle piri piri masala evenly over the hot fries. Serve immediately.
