Jhuri Aloo Vaja is a classic Bengali comfort food that turns humble potatoes into an irresistible crispy delight. Potatoes are peeled, finely julienned, rinsed to remove excess starch, and then deep‑fried in hot mustard or neutral oil until golden and crunchy. Seasoned lightly with salt and sliced green chilies, this side dish is served fresh and crackling alongside steamed rice, yellow dal, and a wedge of lemon. Light yet full of texture, it adds the perfect crisp balance to any Bengali meal.
