Stir fried potato threads

This is an easy and quick recipe, with the ingredients from our kitchen. Tips on slicing the potatoes is given in my other similar recipe - Potato threads with greens.

Ingredients:
  1. Medium sized potatoes - 2 (Serves 3-4 person)
  2. Green Chile - as needed (chop finely)
  3. Garlic 4 - 5 pods, Finely Sliced not chopped.
  4. Salt as per taste
  5. Vinegar 1/2 tbl spoon (optional)
  6. Olive / Sesame Oil for frying - 2 Tbl Spoon  OR  Regular cooking  oil if you do not prefer other oil

Steps to Cook:

Slice the potatoes as described, soak in water for about 10 min. After that wash twice in fresh water and take potatoes off of water and keep aside

Heat oil in a large non stick pan (pan or wok suits well to fry). [Whole recipe is done in medium flame]

Add the potato threads and saute for a min followed by garlic. Give quick toss.

Add little vinegar (1/2 tb.sp) if you like, to add up the taste and retain the color.

Add the green chili and salt, continue to cook.

Toss and fry for 4 - 5 minutes. You can notice the potatoes loose it hardness and becomes soft, at this point taste for seasoning and add if extra salt is needed.

Serve hot, it can be eaten as salad or starter before meal, or with plain rice or just that.
Try this and do surprise your loved ones. Keep cooking and share your reviews.
