Winter is the season to eat sweet potatoes, and today I have extended this alternative method to making sweet potato shreds for the first time.
Ingredients Required:
2 sweet potatoes, a little cooking oil, an appropriate amount of ordinary flour and fine corn flour.
Here's how:
Clean the 2 sweet potatoes first, the surface of the sweet potatoes looks rustic and unsightly, but in fact it is really golden and jade, and it is not good-looking.
Peel off the skin first, cut into fine wires, you can also use a scraper to scrape into thin wires, so it is more uniform, I use red sweet potatoes today, white sweet potatoes, yellow sweet potatoes can also be done in the same way, but the taste of different varieties will be different, this method should try to use sweet potatoes with little moisture.
Pour an appropriate amount of cooking oil on the shredded sweet potatoes and stir well so that each shredded sweet potato can be stained with oil, which is also an important step for the steamed shredded sweet potatoes to be clearly defined.
At this time, you can put water in the steamer and turn on the fire. Then mix the plain flour and corn flour evenly, add it in parts, stir well, so that each red potato shredded can be coated with a layer of flour, like this The roots are very loose and you can do it. The ratio of ordinary flour to fine corn flour is one to one, and the corn flour used here is fine flour like ordinary flour, and if there is no fine corn flour, it is okay to use all ordinary flour.
When the water in the steamer boils, put the steaming drawer, spread the cage cloth, spread the mixed sweet potato shreds evenly on top, and cover the lid. Depending on the thickness and amount of shredded sweet potatoes, steam over medium heat for 8-10 minutes.
If you like the original taste of sweet potatoes, you can take the opportunity to take a break. If you like a slightly sweet, slightly salty and slightly spicy taste, you can take advantage of this time to prepare the seasoning: pat the garlic flattened and chopped into minced foam, and the washed shallots are chopped into green onions.
When the time is up, don't simmer, just open the lid. Pour it into a basin, don't stir, cool it slightly, pick up the basin and mix it a few times before it spreads, and it won't stick at all.
You can eat it directly on a plate, and you can eat the original flavor of sweet potatoes with a slight sweetness.
You can also pour the chopped garlic and chopped green onions, you can also put some chili foam if you like spicy, you can leave it out if you don't eat spicy, there is also a slight spicy taste of garlic foam, pour hot oil to stimulate the fragrance of garlic and green onion chili.
Stir well and you're done, it's so fragrant!
It's ready to be served on a plate. The peculiar method has a special taste, slightly sweet, slightly salty, slightly spicy mixed with garlic and green onion aromas, which is very worth trying.
