Main Ingredients- 2 medium potatoes
- 1/3 red bell pepper
- 1/3 onion
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, peel the potatoes and then thinly slice them into long shreds, about 0.3cm thick. Finely shred the onion and red bell pepper to a similar thickness and length. Adding colorful bell peppers will make your stir-fried potatoes more appealing.
Step 2
It’s crucial to soak the shredded potatoes in cold water for about 10 minutes. This process removes excess starch, preventing the shreds from sticking together when cooked and ensuring a fluffier texture. After 10 minutes, drain them thoroughly in a sieve.
Step 3
Heat a pan over medium heat and add a generous amount of cooking oil. Add the drained shredded potatoes and stir-fry. Once the potatoes start to look translucent, add the shredded onion and red bell pepper. Finally, season with salt and pepper to your taste and continue to stir-fry, allowing the flavors to meld.
Step 4
Continue to stir-fry until the potatoes are tender and cooked through. Once the potatoes reach your desired tenderness, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan with a lid, and let them cook for another 2-3 minutes. This steaming step ensures the potatoes are moist and fluffy all the way through. Enjoy them while they’re warm!
