  12. Add oil to the wok, heat it up, add onions and green peppers and stir-fry, add five-spice powder and a small amount of salt to the chopped raw meat, stir-fry, then add the steamed shredded potatoes into the pot and stir-fry evenly, add the stewed meat into the pot and stir-fry evenly, and it is ready to serve. (If you like it drier, you can fry it for a while.) In this way, the potato rub is completed. In fact, it’s delicious when fried like this without adding any sauce.
