Potato-based snacks are widely available in India and are prepared for a variety of occasions. It is commonly modified or prepared as cutlets or patties, but it can also be created as a meat substitute with comparable characteristics and maybe taste. The potato lollipop dish, which is noted for its texture, crispiness, and spice, and savory combo taste, is one such meat replacement.

It’s the perfect balance of moistness and crispiness for a kid-friendly snack. If the sauce is too spicy for you or your children, you can completely skip it. This sauce is one of my favorites and I use it on almost all of my crispy snacks, but it isn’t required if you don’t want to.
