Fried Potato Straws Recipes

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and cut lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick julienne with slicer, then submerge in a large bowl of ice water. Rinse potatoes in several changes of cold water in bowl until water is clear. Drain in a colander, then spread out on several layers of paper towels and pat dry. Transfer potatoes to a large rack to air-dry15 minutes.
• While potatoes are drying, heat oil in a 5- to 6-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat until it registers 375°F on thermometer. Fry potatoes in 8 batches, stirring, until crisp and golden, 45 seconds to 1 minute per batch, transferring with a slotted spoon to dry paper towels to drain and seasoning with salt. Return oil to 375°F between batches.

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Boil on medium-high heat until tender but still intact, about 15 minutes. Drain.
• Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium-low and add pea pods. Add cooked potatoes and increase heat to medium. Cook 5 to 7 minutes more.
• Add bok choy, bean sprouts, and spinach to the pan. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low; cook about 5 minutes. Add soy sauce and ginger. Cook, uncovered, until juices evaporate and leaves are wilted, about 5 minutes more. Season with salt.
