Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Hello everyone! Today, I’m going to introduce a recipe for ‘Bacon and Potato Stir-fry’ that both kids and adults love. It’s a wonderfully hearty side dish.
Step 2
First, wash and peel the potato thoroughly. Using a julienne peeler to cut it into thin strips makes it cook evenly and improves the texture. Rinse the julienned potatoes under running water 2-3 times to remove excess starch, then pat them completely dry with paper towels. This step helps prevent oil splattering while cooking and ensures the potatoes become crispier. Heat a generous amount of cooking oil in a frying pan over high heat and stir-fry the potatoes until they become translucent. Be careful not to stir too frequently, as this can cause the potatoes to break apart.
Step 3
Cut the bacon into bite-sized pieces (about 1-2 cm wide) and set aside.
Step 4
Once the potatoes are somewhat cooked and translucent, add the sliced bacon to the pan and stir-fry them together. The bacon will release its own fat, so you won’t need much additional oil. Stir-fry over medium heat, ensuring the potatoes and bacon are well combined. The savory flavor of the bacon will infuse into the potatoes, creating a wonderful aroma.
Step 5
When the potatoes are golden brown and the bacon is cooked to your liking, add the finely chopped green onion and toasted sesame seeds. Give it a quick stir to combine. The green onion adds a fresh aroma, and the sesame seeds provide a nutty flavor, enhancing the overall dish. Add these ingredients just before turning off the heat to preserve the fresh taste of the onion.
Step 6
There you have it – a delicious Bacon and Potato Stir-fry is complete! The savory bacon and fluffy potatoes are a truly irresistible combination.
