Basic cooking method

STIR-FRY

THE BASICS STEP BY STEP….

  • Scrub the potatoes clean or peel the potatoes
  • Cut the raw potatoes into slices, wedges or small cubes, making sure that they are about the same size
  • Heat olive oil or butter in a wok over medium-high heat
  • Allow the potatoes to cook in the wok with the lid on – do stir the potatoes occasionally
  • Remove the lid and stir-fry the potatoes until they are crispy and golden brown
  • Season the potatoes with salt and/or other herbs to taste

Tip!

Would you prefer that the potatoes need less time to cook? Simply cut the potatoes into smaller chunks.

THE RIGHT POTATO!

Use a firm texture/waxy potato when stir-frying potatoes: after all, you do not want the potatoes to fall apart as you cook them. Waxy potato varieties include Nicola, Annabelle, Charlotte, Amandine, Jazzy and Bildtstar, among others.

Tip! Portion size
