Cooking an amazing dish from ordinary potatoes
Wash and peel the potatoes, cut into small cubes. Place in a baking dish and cover with cling film. We make several punctures and cook in the microwave for 7 minutes at the highest power. You can simply boil the potatoes, the main thing is to make mashed potatoes from them, without the usual additives of milk and butter.
Add starch, a little water, mix. We do not pour in all the water at once, but gradually, so that a uniform mass is obtained. A well-kneaded dough should be soft enough, without lumps, and should not crack.
Roll out small balls from the mixture and press them down with the neck of the bottle. You should end up with pieces that look like champignons.
Boil water and boil fake mushrooms in salted water for 2-3 minutes. The pieces will increase in volume as soon as they are filled with water - the dish is almost ready.
Place the potato balls in cold water to rinse and cool. Place in a colander to drain excess water.
Add chopped garlic, soy sauce, sugar, chili powder, and finely chopped green onions to the potato mushrooms.
Heat the vegetable oil and add to the dish.
Mix everything and serve. Delicious, unusual and very tasty potato mushrooms are ready. Be sure to please your loved ones!
