This is perhaps one of the most requested recipes; honestly, it took me a while to share it. I have already shared another variant of this recipe, i.e. chilli potato recipe, which is almost similar but minus honey and sesame toppings. But this is more tasty as it combines sweet and spicy due to chillies and honey. However, the honey chilli potato recipe is not my husband’s favourite. He does not like the sweet taste of his snacks, and hence, I prepare them less often. Even I do not have a crazy appetite for honey chilli recipes, and therefore, it took me a reasonable amount of time to share it in my blog with a video.
As mentioned earlier, the recipe for honey chilli potato recipe is straightforward, yet there are a few tips and recommendations for a perfect recipe. Firstly, I have used potato wedges in this recipe, but alternatively, you can also use sweet potato, zucchini and even gobi. Secondly, I sprinkled corn flour on top of boiled potatoes, which made them crispy. Alternatively, you can use pink potatoes with less starch and yield more crispy and tasty fries. Lastly, you can vary the proportion of honey to make it sweeter or less sweet by increasing or decreasing the quantity. Furthermore, it can also be served as a side dish for Chinese rice dishes like fried rice or even in vegetarian noodles recipes.
Finally, I would like to highlight my other recipes from the Chinese collection with this post on the honey chilli potato recipe. It includes recipes like chilli paneer, gobi manchurian, cabbage manchurian, spring roll, noodles soup, wheat momos, Schezwan fried rice and veg crispy recipes.
