How to Make Stir-Fried Celery and Potato Shreddes

Stir-fried celery and potato shreds is a quick, healthy, and delicious dish loved for its crispy texture and fresh flavor. Here’s a simple guide to making it:

Ingredients: 2 potatoes, 2 celery stalks, 1 garlic clove, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp vinegar, salt, sugar, cooking oil.

Steps:

1. Prepare the vegetables: Peel and shred the potatoes into thin strips, then soak them in cold water to remove excess starch (this keeps them crispy). Pat dry with a paper towel. Trim and slice the celery into similar-sized pieces. Mince the garlic.

2. Season the sauce: In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, vinegar, a pinch of salt, and a little sugar to balance the flavors.

3. Stir-fry: Heat oil in a wok or pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and stir until fragrant. Toss in the potato shreds and stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until slightly softened. Add celery and continue stir-frying for 1–2 minutes until crisp-tender.

4. Finish: Pour the sauce over the vegetables, toss quickly to coat evenly, and cook for another 30 seconds. Serve hot immediately.

This dish pairs perfectly with steamed rice and offers a delightful mix of earthy potatoes and refreshing celery. Enjoy your homemade creation!
