Method

  1. 1

    Cut the potato slices into fine strips, then rinse in cold water and drain well.

  2. 2

    Heat half the groundnut oil in a wok until hot and stir-fry the potato strips for 5 minutes, until tender but still with a little bite.

  3. 3

    Add the sliced fresh red chilli and stir-fry for 1 minute.

  4. 4

    Beat the eggs. Push the potato to one side of the wok, add the remaining oil and pour in the eggs, scrambling until just set.

  5. 5

    Toss the egg and potato together with the light soy sauce for 1 minute.

  6. 6

    Scatter with the spring onions and serve with steamed rice.
