Slim Potato

In this unique recipe, potato played a major role as a senior brother to other vegetables involved in this  wonderful journey,  people see potato as a comfort food. Unfortunately they eat potato in form of french fries or potato chips....even baked potato is typically loaded down with fat, cheese etc.which can contribute to heart attack .All foods are naturally healthy when  cooked the right way, ....that is why sometimes you find carrot rebelling against a chef. If you want  food to be your medicine, you must apply  the  necessary skills .Potatoes  belong to the nightshade family and it has other family members like "tomato,pepper and eggplants...off cause they will  surely have other relations...with uncountable health benefit. U can all see it in my eyes.

In this recipe i played with a combination of fish , chicken, and pork .... marinated with oyster sauce.
The  three parties agreed to work together   because  " i was very close to them and i gave them the needed attention.... it even  got to a stage where they had  to help me  choose the other vegetables .... we chose green pepper, spring onions ,carrot and coriander.

The most interesting part of cooking is  " being able to communicate with  ingredients .If you get it, you will make your food  medicinal and set your life  free from diseases and eating disorder.

INGREDIENTS.

2 potatoes
1 pound of fish,pork and fish
5 spring onions
1 tsp salt
1 tsp garlic
1 tsp ginger
1 green pepper
1 carrot
1/2 cup of water
 2 tbsp  veg oil for stir-fry:
1 tbsp oyster sauce
3 fresh pepper

PREPARATION:

Marinate the fish,chicken and pork with oyster sauce and sesame oil in a bow and set aside.
Take off the back of the potatoes and slice it into a slim shape . Wash it well until the water becomes clean, then add little salt and set  aside.Clean up other vegetables and get them ready for use  ...if you like, chop them raw..... na you sabi!

If you have a wok ....place it on a high heat and make sure that your turning stick is free and clean before using it .
Oil the wok and allow it to heat to a level then add the  ginger and stir fry until it turns brown,..add the slim potatoes and spring onions to it then stir fry  for another 3 minutes and  set aside.

If you have another wok,please do place it on another burner on a high heat  and oil it ,but if you do not have ,wash up your only wok  and use it.

At this time all the needed ingredients are fully ready for the journey .
