Crispy fried potatoes, sausages, and onions seasoned with mentsuyu and shiso leaves for a Japanese twist on German potatoes. This exquisite recipe is perfect as a snack or a side dish that will bring you happiness with every bite.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • 2 potatoes (350g)
  • 1/4 onion (60g)
  • 4 sausages
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 10 shiso leaves

Seasonings

  • 5g butter
  • 1 tbsp Mentsuyu (Noodle Soup Base, double concentrated)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • A sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds

Steps

  1. Peel and thinly slice 1/4 onion.
  2. Cut 4 sausages diagonally and then into large bite-sized pieces.
  3. Peel and finely mince 1 clove garlic.
  4. Trim the stems from 10 shiso leaves and finely mince them. Reserve some for garnish.
  5. Peel 2 potatoes (300-350g) and carefully remove any eyes.
  6. Cut the potatoes into large, irregular bite-sized pieces. (Key Tip!) Cut them slightly larger to enjoy their fluffy texture.
  7. Place the cut potatoes in a frying pan and add enough frying oil to cover them about 3/4 of the way.
  8. Heat the oil over medium-high heat.
  9. Once the oil is hot and starts to bubble, reduce heat to medium and deep-fry the potatoes. (Key Tip!) You don't need to stir them much, but occasionally flip the potatoes and fry for 8-10 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy.
  10. Remove the golden-brown potatoes from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain the excess oil.
  11. Clean the frying pan, add 5g butter, minced garlic, and the cut sausages, and sauté.
  12. Once the sausages are cooked, add the thinly sliced onion and sauté.
  13. When the onion is cooked, add the drained potatoes, salt and pepper to taste, and 1 tbsp Mentsuyu (Noodle Soup Base). Stir-fry. (Key Tip!) If you don't have mentsuyu, you can substitute with soy sauce and sugar.
  14. Once everything is well seasoned, turn off the heat and add the minced shiso leaves. Toss to combine. (Key Tip!) Remember to save some shiso leaves for garnish.
  15. Transfer the mixture to a serving plate.
  16. Sprinkle the reserved shiso leaves over the top.
  17. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds as desired to complete the dish.
