Dry-fried potatoes (干煸土豆丝)

Dry-fried potatoes(干煸土豆丝)

Ingredients: 

• 2 large potatoes
• 5 dried red chili pepper
• few Sichuan peppercorns
• 1 green onions chopped
• 1 tbsp fine chopped ginger
• 2  fine chopped garlic
• 3 tbsp cumin powder 
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup of corn starch
• Vegetable oil

Direction:

I left potato skin on, but if you want to peel the skin it fine too. Cut the potato into 4mm-5mm strips, soak into the water for 5 mins, then rinse them couple times and drain the potatoes.  Meanwhile, pull the oil into the pot, then coated potatoes with corn starch evenly. Deep fry until golden and crispy. Or fry twice (that's the ancient secret, it makes potato fries extra crispy).

Add some oil into a pan, low heat, when the oil just start warm, add dried red chili pepper, peppercorn, ginger and garlic, stir well, don't let them burned. When you smell the garlic and chili pull over the potato fries. Quick stir fry evenly for 2-3 mins, then add salt and cumin powder, sprinkle the green onion. Stir evenly another 1 min, now it's ready to serve. :) Enjoy!!!
