It is a traditional and famous dish in Kaifeng City, Henan Province. The appearance is crystal clear and tastes sweet and delicious.
It is said that foreigners invited Lin Zexu, a patriotic general of the Qing Dynasty, to eat ice cream. When Lin Zexu saw that the ice was steaming, he thought it was hot air blowing through his mouth, but he didn't know it was ice air until he took a bite, and he was laughed at by foreigners around him. Lin Zexu was very angry about this and made up his mind that he must find an opportunity to teach foreigners a lesson.
by chance, the emperor asked him to receive foreigners, and he asked the chef to cook a fried mashed sweet potatoes. When foreigners saw that the mashed sweet potatoes on the table were not steaming, they picked up a spoon and ate them. However, the mashed sweet potatoes just out of the pot are covered with oil, and although they don't steam, they are really hot inside, which makes foreigners scream.
Therefore, the reputation of fried mashed sweet potatoes as a patriotic dish has been derived from this and has been passed down to this day.
