Main Ingredients- 400g potatoes (about 2 medium-sized)
- Vegetable oil, as needed
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, peel the potatoes and rinse them thoroughly under water to remove excess starch. Then, slice the potatoes into thin strips about 0.3cm thick. If they are too thick, they will take longer to cook.
Step 2
Pour about 500ml of water into a pot and bring it to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, prepare to blanch the potatoes.
Step 3
Add all the sliced potatoes to the boiling water and blanch for about 3 minutes. This step helps to soften the potatoes and shorten the cooking time. Be careful not to over-blanch, as they might become mushy.
Step 4
Drain the blanched potatoes thoroughly using a colander. It’s important to remove as much moisture as possible; residual water can cause oil splattering or make the potatoes soggy. Gently pressing them with paper towels can help remove excess water.
Step 5
Now, heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a generous amount of vegetable oil. Ensure there’s enough oil so the potato strips don’t stick together and can cook evenly.
Step 6
Once the pan is hot, add the drained potato strips and stir-fry over medium-low heat, making sure they don’t burn. Cook until the edges of the potatoes become slightly translucent and tender.
Step 7
When the potatoes are almost cooked and tender, add 0.3 Tbsp of salt (about 1/3 tsp) and spread it evenly. The savory saltiness will complement the natural sweetness of the potatoes, making them much more delicious.
Step 8
Next, sprinkle in 0.3 Tbsp of black pepper (about 1/3 tsp) to enhance the flavor. You can adjust the amount of pepper to your preference.
Step 9
Finally, sprinkle 1 Tbsp of curry powder evenly over the potatoes. After adding the curry powder, stir quickly and thoroughly to ensure it’s well combined and doesn’t clump. Continue to stir-fry for about 1 more minute to allow the curry aroma to infuse into the potatoes, enhancing their flavor.
Step 10
Transfer the delicious curry stir-fried potato noodles to a serving plate. Garnish with 1 Tbsp of toasted sesame seeds for an extra nutty flavor and visual appeal. Your wonderful Curry Stir-fried Potato Noodles are now ready! They are especially delicious served over warm rice.
