Reduce the flame to zero and let the potatoes sit for 10 minutes to activate pectin.

Drain the potatoes and boil them again in fresh water for 2 minutes on high flame.

Spread the boiled potatoes on a cotton cloth to dry them completely.

Let the potatoes air dry for 1 hour in front of a fan.

Heat oil in a pan for frying the potatoes.

Fry the potatoes on medium flame for about 5-6 minutes until a coating forms.

Remove the partially fried potatoes and place them in the freezer for 10-12 hours.

After freezing, heat oil again for final frying.

Fry the potatoes on high flame until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.

Remove the fries and place them on a tissue paper-lined bowl to absorb excess oil.

Sprinkle salt and chaat masala over the fries and mix well.
