Fried Potato Shreds

Fried Potato Shreds

Crispy, golden, and irresistibly delicious, these homemade fried potato shreds are a simple yet addictive snack or side dish. Made with just potatoes, egg, and starch, this recipe transforms basic ingredients into a crispy delight. The grated potatoes are rinsed to remove excess starch, then mixed with a beaten egg and seasoned with salt, sugar, and pepper for a perfect balance of flavors. A quick fry in hot oil over low heat ensures they turn golden and crunchy without burning. Pro tip: Use chopsticks to loosen the shreds while frying for even crispiness and avoid overcrowding the pan for the best texture. Enjoy them as-is or sprinkle with extra salt or sugar to suit your taste. These golden potato shreds are a must-try for anyone who loves crispy, savory bites with minimal effort!
