There are famous snacks in Yunnan, such as crossing the bridge rice noodles, small pot rice noodles, steamed ear silk and so on. But the fried potatoes in Yunnan are the most exciting thing for Yunnan people who go out to work hard.
You may say that there are potatoes all over the country, so why are your fried potatoes delicious in Yunnan? Yunnan is located in Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, with a large temperature difference between day and night, and the annual average temperature is about 20 degrees Celsius, which is most suitable for potato growth. Therefore, the potato starch here is relatively high, and the potato aroma is compelling after frying. The famous potato varieties are Xuanshu 1 and Huize Colorful Potato.
Here's how to fry potatoes.
Peel the washed potatoes and cut them into pieces. Pour into the oil pan and fry until golden brown, or just fry until medium-cooked (commonly known as semi-cooked potatoes). Most young people like potatoes half-cooked. In the process of frying, you must add garlic and fry it together, so that the fragrance of garlic will be fried into potatoes together.
Then cut the leek and mint into small pieces, pour them into the pot and stir-fry until cooked. (This step is also critical. The purpose of this is to lock the aroma of leek and mint in the oil and distribute it on the surface of potatoes to make them more tasty. )
The last step is to take out the pot, put the fried potatoes into a bowl, add a little sauerkraut, add Chili noodles, and stir well to serve.
