Weekend Menu # 44: Easy potato dish

Besides baked potatoes and mashed potatoes, I also love fried potatoes.  I learn this stir fry potato dish from an old friend when we were studied in Nilai back in 1998.  Since then, I enjoy cooking this dish and serve to my family.

 

Usually I will just stir fry my pre-fried potato slices with some oyster sauce. But this round, I stir fry it with some sliced bacons for different flavour.  Very yummy dish and the kids love it too.

 

 

Fried potatoes with bacons

 

Ingredients:

 

4 - 5 potatoes, peeled and sliced into smaller slices

Minced garlic and sliced shallots

2 bacon slices, sliced into smaller pieces

2 tbsp oyster sauce

Salt to taste

Oil for frying

 

Methods:

 

1. Fry the potato slices in 2 batches in hot wok under low heat.  Once they are browned, dish them out and drain.

 



 

2. Add 2 tbsp oil in a wok.  Once it is heated up, add in garlic and shallots.  When they are browned, add in sliced bacon.  Stir fry for a minute then add in the fried potato slices to the wok. 

3.  A quick stir then add in the oyster sauces and salt.  You can add a bit of water if the dish is too dry.  Dish out and serve with rice.
