Ingredients
- 500 grams Potatoes
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 3 pieces Green onions, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce, low sodium
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Chili flakes (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Begin by washing and peeling 500 grams of potatoes. Slice them into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 2
In a large non-stick skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic cloves to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
Step 4
Add the sliced potatoes to the skillet. Stir to coat them evenly with the oil and garlic.
Step 5
Allow the potatoes to cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.
Step 6
Add the thinly sliced red bell pepper to the skillet and continue to stir fry for another 5 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the peppers are cooked through but still crisp.
Step 7
Stir in the chopped green onions, 2 tablespoons of low sodium soy sauce, 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt. If desired, add 0.25 teaspoon of chili flakes for a hint of spice.
Step 8
Continue to stir fry everything together for another 3-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Step 9
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot as a side dish or enjoy it on its own for a light meal.
