3.Heat cooking oil in a pan and bring it to around 60% heat. Add the potatoes to the pan individually, if possible, to prevent them from sticking together. Fry the potatoes until they become crispy and golden brown. Remove them from the pan and drain off excess oil.
4.Keep a small amount of cooking oil in the pan, then add the dried chili peppers, minced ginger, minced garlic, and chili pepper rings. Stir-fry until fragrant before adding a spoonful of chili sauce. Stir-fry the chili sauce until well combined, then add the potato slices. Sprinkle a little salt evenly over the potatoes. Add some cumin powder and chopped scallions. Stir-fry everything thoroughly until well mixed.
5.Transfer the mixture onto an iron plate and place it on top of an induction cooker. Heat the iron plate with medium-low heat. Now, this delicious home-style dish is ready.
Tips:
1.Once the iron plate starts emitting green smoke, take it out and cover it with aluminum foil and shredded onions before placing the potato slices on top.
2.When slicing the potatoes, ensure they have a moderate thickness. If time permits, it’s best to soak the potato slices in water and then drain them to remove excess moisture.
3.When adding cumin powder, incorporate it gradually to prevent the potato slices from becoming overly salty.
