Masala Chips

Kenya

What we know so far

Masala chips are Kenya's street-food answer to plain fries: freshly fried potato chips tossed in a thick, garlicky tomato masala with cumin, coriander and chilli, finished with a handful of fresh dhania. They took over Nairobi's chips joints and fast-food counters in the 2010s and are now a standard order alongside chips mayai, eaten with a squeeze of lemon, kachumbari or fried chicken. The spicing comes from Kenya's Indian-influenced coastal and urban cooking.
