Recipe Cooking Instructions:
Ingredients:
- 3 medium-sized potatoes (shredded)
- 1/2 cup green onions (chopped)
- 1/2 cup ham (shredded)
- 1 spoonful of flour
- 3 egg whites
- 3–4 egg yolks
- Salt (to taste)
- Thirteen spice powder or any preferred seasoning (to taste)
- Black sesame seeds
- Barbecue seasoning (optional)
- Oil (for frying)
Cooking Instructions:
-
Prepare the Potato Mixture:
- Peel and shred the potatoes into fine strips. There’s no need to soak them.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded potatoes, chopped green onions, and shredded ham.
- Add the flour, egg whites, salt, and seasoning. Mix thoroughly by hand until the mixture is evenly coated and slightly sticky.
-
Shape the Nests:
- Take a portion of the potato mixture and use chopsticks or your fingers to shape it into a small circular "nest" with a hollow center. Repeat until all the mixture is used.
-
Fry the Nests:
- Heat a frying pan with a thin layer of oil over low heat.
- Place the potato nests gently into the pan. Crack an egg yolk into the hollow center of each nest. Sprinkle black sesame seeds on top for added flavor and visual appeal.
-
Cook Until Golden:
- Fry the nests on low heat until the bottom becomes golden and crispy.
- Carefully flip them over and fry the other side until fully cooked and crispy. This ensures the potatoes are perfectly crunchy while the yolk remains creamy.
-
Add the Finishing Touch:
- Sprinkle a pinch of barbecue seasoning on top for an extra kick of flavor (optional).
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve the Golden Potato Egg Nests warm. Their delightful crunch and rich flavors make them an irresistible treat!
