Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

4 medium boiling potatoes -- thin skinned

2 carrots

1 large mild onion

4 teaspoons oil

1 vegetable stock cube

4 tablespoons rice vinegar

2 teaspoons sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

additional salt for cucumber

2 medium eggs -- beaten

1/2 cucumber

 

1. Cut each potato lengthwise into four, then slice the pieces across into thick

(1/3-inch wide) chunks. Soak the potatoes in cold water for 2 minutes and drain

well.

 

2. Halve the carrots vertically, then slice them across into chunks. Cut the

onion into wedges.

 

3. Heat the oil in a deep frying pan or wok. Stir fry the potatoes and carrots

and onion for 1 minutes. Dissolve the vegetable stock cube in 1 cup boiling

water and boil into pan. Add the rice vinegar, sugar and salt. Cover and simmer

for 5 minutes. Uncover and cook over a moderate heat until all the liquid has

evaporated. Shake the pan gently occasionally to prevent the vegetables from

sticking to the pan as the liquid drives up.

 

4. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for 30 seconds, then add the beaten

egg stirring quickly until the egg sets. Transfer to a dish and leave to cook,

then chill.

 

5. Meanwhile, halve the cucumber vertically and cut it into thin slices. Place

the cucumber in a colander or sieve over a bowl. Sprinkle with a little salt and

leave to stand for 10 minutes. Gently squeeze out the liquid from the cucumber.

 

6. Add cucumber to the potatoe mixture and check the seasoning adding more salt

if necessary serve chilled.
