Sautéed Potato Stir-Fry: Simple and Delicious Homemade Side Dish
Easy & Tasty Potato Stir-Fry Recipe: Perfect for a Home-Cooked Meal!
On holidays and weekends, preparing side dishes is a must! I made this potato stir-fry, and everyone loved it, which made me so happy. ^^
Main Ingredients- 5 medium potatoes
- 1 onion
- 1/3 carrot
- 1 green chili pepper (optional)
Seasoning- 2 Tbsp grapeseed oil
- 1 Tbsp salt (adjust to taste)
- 2 Tbsp grapeseed oil
- 1 Tbsp salt (adjust to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the main ingredients: peel the potatoes, chop the onion and carrot, and finely mince the green chili pepper. Ensure the potatoes are peeled and ready.
Step 2
Using a knife or a mandoline slicer, thinly julienne all the prepared ingredients. Try to cut the potatoes, onion, and carrot to a similar thickness so they cook evenly.
Step 3
Heat the grapeseed oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the julienned onion and carrot and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. This step helps to bring out the natural sweetness of the vegetables.
Step 4
Place the julienned potatoes in a colander and rinse them under running tap water. Rinsing removes excess starch, which prevents the potatoes from sticking together and results in a cleaner, fluffier texture after stir-frying.
Step 5
Shake off any excess water from the rinsed potato shreds. Add them to the pan with the sautéed carrots and onions. Top with the minced green chili pepper and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of salt evenly over everything. Cover the pan with a lid and let it cook undisturbed over low heat for 15 minutes. This steaming process will cook the potatoes through gently.
Step 6
Remove the lid and carefully stir-fry the potatoes, being gentle to avoid mashing them. Continue to cook until most of the moisture has evaporated and the potatoes are tender and slightly crisp. For an extra touch of flavor and shine, you can stir in a little sesame oil at the end.
Step 7
Transfer the finished potato stir-fry to a serving dish. Sprinkle generously with toasted sesame seeds for a final flourish. Enjoy this delicious and wholesome side dish! ^^
