Quick-fried Shredded Potatoes

Shredded Potato

Introduction to quick fried shredded potatoes:

The previous potato recipe that we introduced the other day is the sour and spicy potato salad recipe. There we talked about how everyone likes potato and how many dishes potatoes can be processed into. Today, we are introducing another one of the shredded potato recipes.

Shredded potatoes can not only look different but also taste different when they are coarsely or finely shredded. This is weird. But it is true. When you try several sizes of the potato strips, you will know what’s your type. Then you can stick with it.

Seasonings:

Sichuan Pepper: a teaspoon

Vinegar: a teaspoon

Salt: a teaspoon

Shredded scallion: 10 g

Shredded ginger: 10 g

Peanut oil: 50 g

Garlic cloves: 2

Preparation work:

6. Shred the scallion;

7. Shred the ginger;

Cooking:

Tips:

1. You might want to put the potato shreds into hot water. Nothing is wrong with that if it is what you want. And it would be easier as far as the cooking process is concerned because the potato shreds would be already edible before being put into the wok. However, hot water can squeeze the nutrition contained in the potato away. However, that’s not the most important thing if the dish is tasty enough. We will introduce this kind of shredded potato recipe later on.

2. The reason why the potato shreds much be immersed and rinsed in cool water is that the shreds will get straightened and refreshed. You will know what I mean when you see.
