Potato Tornado


Hello, my Foodie Fellas.......hope you all are doing fine and not getting frustrated due to the COVID situation. We all need to stay positive and enthusiastic to overcome the current situation. I know it's very easy for somebody to sermonize things but very difficult to follow. But believe me, if you get yourself involve in something then you'll be much more relaxed. It can be anything starting from doodling, painting, cooking, reading, singing, dancing and the list goes on......These are the things which we have kept aside and became busy in our day-to-day activities. So, take out some time and rejuvenate yourself.


We as adults are not only the ones you are going through all this but our kids are also under the same umbrella. They too are at home all the time. It's a very usual thing that they can get frustrated reason being staying at home for the last 3-4 months. 



One thing that can keep them happy in this situation is good food. Treat them with their favorite dishes every now and then to keep them happy and motivated. Today's recipe is Potato Tornado or Spiral Potato French Fries and we will be making them without a machine. This can serve as a great tea-time snack and will make your kid happy whenever they're a little demotivated. So, let's begin with the recipe:
