Method
- 1
Cut the potato slices into fine matchsticks, then rinse well in cold water and drain thoroughly to remove excess starch.
- 2
Heat half the groundnut oil in a wok and fry the dried red chilli, crumbled, and garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- 3
Add the potato strips and stir-fry over a high heat for 4 minutes, until just tender but still with a little crunch.
- 4
Stir in the rice vinegar and most of the spring onions, and toss for 1 minute, then season with salt.
- 5
Heat the remaining oil in a separate pan and fry the eggs for 2 to 3 minutes, until the whites are set and the yolks still soft.
- 6
Spoon the potato strips over the steamed jasmine rice, top each portion with a fried egg and scatter with the remaining spring onions.
