Sichuan Dry Pot Potatoes
Description
The recipe begins by peeling and cutting potatoes into thick slices, boiled briefly to soften without fully cooking. After draining, the potatoes are fried in oil until their surfaces brown slightly, which dries them out and adds a crisp layer. The potatoes are then cooked with spicy doubanjiang (fermented chili bean paste), minced garlic, ginger, scallion whites, chili powder, salt, and sugar, creating a deep, umami-rich, and spicy seasoning base. Chopped red and green long peppers, red onion, and scallion sections are stirred in, along with light soy sauce to balance flavors. Chili oil can be added for extra heat. The dish yields spicy, textured potatoes with layers of fragrant spices and fresh vegetable accents.
