Notes

• Firstly, fry the potatoes till they turn crispy; otherwise, they won’t taste good.
• Also, adjust the amount of honey depending on the sweetness you are looking for.
• Additionally, do not cook once honey is added, as the flavor of honey will be lost.
• Finally, Honey Chilli Potato Recipe tastes great when served hot and crispy.
