Recipe: Sour and spicy shredded potato
Writer: | Editor: 南楠 | From:
Sour and spicy shredded potato is often one of the first dishes Chinese people learn because it's so simple, tasty and popular with friends and families. So if you want to fit in with your circle of Chinese friends, you better learn this dish. Here we offer you the recipe for you to try at home.
Ingredients:
2 potatoes, dried red chili to taste, oil, vinegar, salt to taste
Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them, aiming for a shape similar to a french ry, but much thinner.
The best way to accomplish this is to first of all cut the spud into thin slices, then cut them length-ways. The thinner and more uniform you can get them, the easier things will be later.
Heat the oil in a wok and add the potato, stir fry until half done. Then add all the other ingredients.
Chinese cooking is an art – ideally you should be able to cook the potato through just by shallow frying it – not deep frying it like a french fry. However, if it doesn’t work and the potato starts sticking, add a little hot water. The water will evaporate off and steam the potato.
Repeat this process until it’s cooked.
