How to Make Crispy Potato Cubes
Step 1:
Fill a pot with water and place over heat. Let it come to a boil.
Step 2:
While waiting for the water to boil, peel the potatoes, then slice the outside edge of each piece. Cut into small bars, then into cubes.
Step 3:
Put the cubed potatoes in boiling water and boil for 15 minutes.
Step 4:
Once it’s almost done cooking, fill a bowl with cold water. Strain the cubed potatoes and put them in the cold water immediately to stop the cooking process.
Step 5:
Take out the potatoes and let them dry.
Step 6:
Place them in a plastic bag then add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch. Twist the end and shake the potatoes well to coat.
Step 7:
Heat a generous amount of oil in a pan. Once hot, carefully add the coated potatoes. Spread them evenly and fry for about 8 minutes. Once done, remove from the oil and strain the excess oil. Let them cool for about 15 minutes.
Step 8:
Once cooled, heat the oil again and put back the potatoes. Fry for about 3 minutes. Strain then put the potatoes in a bowl.
Step 9:
Sprinkle dried scallions and 1 tablespoon of cheese powder. Shake evenly. Serve and enjoy!
