Instructions
Grab 500g potatoes, peel, chop.
Place potato chunks in a steamer. Cook over medium-high heat for 15-20 minutes until tender.
While potatoes steam, prep aromatics: chop green onions, mince garlic, dice red bell pepper, and mince bird’s eye chilies (if using). Set aside.
Transfer cooked potatoes to a bowl. Add 1 pinch of salt and potato starch. Mash well and mix thoroughly.
Take small portions of the potato mixture (about 40g each) and roll into balls.
Gently press each ball with a clean wine bottle to form a mushroom cap shape (press lightly to avoid breaking).
Steam the shaped potato mushroom bites again for 6 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Heat cooking oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add half the chopped green onions, garlic, red bell pepper, and bird’s eye chilies (if using). Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in oyster sauce. Pour in hot water, then add ½ tsp salt, chicken bouillon, light soy sauce, and sugar. Mix well to combine.
Add the steamed potato mushroom bites to the sauce. Simmer for 2 minutes, tossing gently to coat evenly.
Garnish with the remaining chopped green onions. Serve hot with rice (optional).
