It is best to cut potatoes into shreds rather than grating them. Hand-cut potato shreds are firmer, whereas grated ones are softer and mushier. Additionally, soaking the potato shreds in water before stir-frying removes some of the starch, resulting in a crispier texture. Since pickled ginger and pickled peppers are both quite salty, you should use less salt than usual; alternatively, you can soak them in water before use to remove much of the saltiness.
