This week I am sharing a popular Chinese veggie recipe – Szechuan Style Shredded Potatoes!
Szechuan cuisine, a style of Chinese cuisine originating from Sichuan Province has been sweeping the nation over the past few years with its bold flavors.
This recipe is a famous and popular dish of Szechuan cuisine.
Speaking of Szechuan cuisine, the use of chili peppers and Szechuan pepper is a must, this recipe is no exception. Above are all the ingredients needed to make this dish. Dried chili pepper and Szechuan peppercorn are easy to find at Chinese grocery stores.
I like to boil the shredded potato for a minute before stir-frying, this helps to shorten the cooking time later.
Not only is this one of the easiest Chinese veggie recipes to make, this Szechuan style shredded potatoes is also very budget-friendly. The total cost of the all the ingredients are around 2 dollars!
The crunchy potato is spicy and sour taste. Make you keep wanting to take another bite!
