Continuing the trend of regional favorites, Pinzo Alu 65 (often spelled Aloo 65) is a crispy, deep-fried potato snack that captures the essence of the classic South Indian “65” masala. While the bigger packs (like 200g) are great for tea-time at home, the smaller single-serve pouches are the go-to for a quick, spicy crunch on the move.
Flavor & Texture Profile
-
The “65” Spice: This isn’t just “chili” heat. It’s a complex, aromatic blend featuring garlic, curry leaves, and red chili. It has a slightly savory, “umami” depth that mimics the famous chicken version.
-
The Crunch: Unlike a thin potato chip, Pinzo Alu 65 usually has a thicker, more “shredded” or “chunkier” potato base (often similar to a spicy potato sali or lachha), giving it a very satisfying, hard crunch.
-
The Coating: The potatoes are often tossed in a mix of gram flour (besan) or cornflour before frying, which helps the spices stick and creates a rugged, extra-crispy exterior.
