Instructions

6 steps
  1. 1

    Julienne 320 g potatoes to about 0.3 cm thickness, then soak in cold water for 10 minutes to wash off surface starch.

    Drain in a colander and shake off any remaining water before cooking.

  2. 2

    Peel 180g medium shrimp and pat thoroughly dry with paper towel.

    Season evenly with 0.25 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper.

  3. 3

    Heat a wide pan over medium heat and add 1.5 tbsp cooking oil.

    Add 1 tsp minced garlic and 70 g sliced onion, stir-frying for about 30 seconds until the garlic turns fragrant and pale golden.

  4. 4

    Spread the drained potato strips evenly across the pan and stir-fry over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes.

    When the edges turn slightly translucent and the strips slide freely without sticking, they are ready.

  5. 5

    Push the potatoes to one side and add the seasoned shrimp.

    Stir-fry over high heat for about 90 seconds until the shrimp turn orange and curl. Combine with the potatoes and toss together for 10 seconds.

  6. 6

    Remove the pan from the heat, add the remaining 0.25 tsp salt and 1 tsp sesame oil, toss once gently, and plate.

Tips

Removing starch prevents clumping while stir-frying.
Do not overcook shrimp or they become tough.
