I would have to say Mexican. I wish that I had some of that white cheese dip that they have I love that stuff.

Oh thanks workerbee. I would be looking forward for that.

Shabs? Anyone? What do you know about these? They were spicy and very tasty. I'd never seen nor heard of them before.

Workerbee its good to hear that you like every Indian dish you try
(remeber the indian potatoes). Yes Frymes are availble in India and they are little puffy crispy snacks. I love them too. But unfortunately I can't tell you it's recipe because they are readily availbale in the market. 
You just have to buy them and fry them. I wish I could send you some from here. Do you know any indian there. May be they could bring you some. shabs wrote:Workerbee I am still looking for the recipe.
Hi
Dont know about the preparation method but did find at least some of the ingredients that go into it:
Rice flour
Tapioca flour
Potato flour
Seasoned with spices
They taste best deep fried in oil and sprinkled with tangy chana or chaat masala or aamchur powder. Also go well with dips and sauces.
I guess an adventous sort might wanna do some trial and error?
