Hello everyone! Sweet potato is a type of tuber that contains many nutrients beneficial to the body, such as vitamins, fiber, and protein. Usually, people boil or bake sweet potatoes to eat. This time, instead of the usual way of eating sweet potatoes, I'd like to share a recipe for crispy fried sweet potatoes that are delicious to eat with their nice crunchy texture.
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 2 spoons of corn starch
- A little salt
- 1 spoon of good chili
- 1 spoon of chili coloring powder
- Cooking oil
- Water
Step-by-step instructions
(1) First, peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into small sticks of a suitable size for frying. While cutting the sweet potatoes, pour about 3 cups of water into a pot and set it aside. Once all the sweet potatoes have been cut, wash the sweet potato sticks clean.
(2) Next, when the water comes to a boil, arrange the sweet potato sticks neatly on a steaming rack or in a steamer pot with a strainer to steam them with the hot steam. Then place the rack holding the sweet potatoes over the pot of boiling water and steam for about 10 minutes.
(3) By steaming the sweet potatoes before frying, they will be cooked all the way through, and they will taste even better with a nice crispy texture. Next, mix 2 spoons of corn starch with a little water to make a batter. To make the color nice, add 1 spoon of chili coloring powder and mix it into the batter.
(4) Once the sweet potatoes have finished steaming, heat cooking oil in a pot for frying. When the oil is hot, dip the sweet potato sticks into the batter and fry them in the oil for about 3 minutes. Once all the sweet potato sticks are fried, drain the oil, place them on a plate of your choice, and enjoy them deliciously with chili sauce or mayonnaise.
