Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Salting potatoes with salt and starch syrup draws out moisture and firms them up, so they don't break apart when stir-frying.
  • Rinse the salted potatoes lightly to remove excess starch so they don't stick to the pan and brown cleanly.
  • Browning the potatoes well at the start enhances flavor and gives a chewier texture.

Recommended for

  • Those who have struggled with potatoes breaking apart during cooking.
  • Those who enjoy chewy texture and spicy-sweet braised potatoes.
  • Those looking for a practical side dish to keep for a week.
