Raw Raw Raw Potato.

With my week of freedom coming to an end, I have decided to share a really unique recipe with you guys. It's a recipe I learned from my very best friend, he made it one time and I didn't expect it to be as delicious as it turned out. Try this one out, don't be intimidated by the raw potato!



Ingredients:
Potato (raw and sliced into thin strips)
Cumin, white/black pepper, garam masala to taste 
Soy sauce
Regular vinegar 
Ginger, however much you want depending on the strength of flavour you are after (sliced like the potato)
Garlic, 2 cloves, crushed 

Cut the potato into thin strips, of relatively the same size. 


Next, let the potato sit in some cold water while you prep the ginger. **Make sure to drain the water from the potatoes before adding vinegar and soy sauce**




Once ginger is cut, put the potato in a large container, add sliced ginger, and pour enough soy sauce and vinegar to just cover the potato. The ratio of vinegar to soy sauce really depends on how sour or salty you want the dish. I usually do about equal parts of both. 



Once the potato is floating in the liquid, add spices, pepper, and garlic. Mix together. 



Let the potato stand in the fridge for a few hours before serving. 

Yes, it's this simple, and yes, it is delicious. This makes a great beer snack, too! 


Hope you like this recipe as much as I do! 




Bitter mood, makes bitter food! So, fucking smile! :D
