Quick Review Of Amul French Fries
Price and packaging – The Amul French Fries come in a white plastic pouch, which is not resealable. The 425 grams pack of Amul Happy Treats is priced at Rs 68/-.
How can you make it – As mentioned on the Amul French Fries pack, there is no need to thaw the contents before cooking. You can cook these frozen fries right out of the freezer. There are two methods of cooking the Amul Happy Treats – deep frying and baking in an air fryer.
How we made it – For the taste test, we chose the deep frying method. We let the vegetable oil heat up and then added the fries to the pan and cooked till they were a light golden brown in color. It took us about three minutes to fry one batch of fries. We observed that all fries had cooked evenly within the same duration.
Appearance – We eat with our eyes first. Looking at the Amul French Fries raw, we noticed that all fries looked identical. The length, shape, and thickness of all the fries were consistent. None of the pieces were broken. Talking about how the Amul Happy Treats were sized, they had the perfect length and thickness. The fries were not too thick, nor were they too thin.
Taste and texture – As we transferred the fries on the plate, we could hear the crunch before even tasting the Amul Happy Treats. The Amul French Fries have a crispy exterior and are soft and fluffy from the inside. Not only that, there were no hollow pieces, and we could taste the potatoes. As for the potatoes’ taste, they weren’t chalky and had a natural savouriness that was pleasant.
As the list of ingredients mentions, there is no added salt or any other seasoning. This leaves enough room for them to be experimented on to make loaded fries at home or addition of herbs and spices of your choice or even pair them with a spicy dip. Unlike some brands we tried in our review earlier, the Amul French Fries cooked evenly and were not hollow from inside. Give this potato-based snack a go at your next house party or movie night!
