Method

1. 1 Peel the potatoes, then slice them into 4 mm thick strips and soak them in cold water for 10 minutes.
2. 2 Soak the sweet potato strands in water to remove the starch from the surface; if you don't soak them, the strands will stick together.
3. 3 Drain the potato strips and then stir-fry them in oil over medium heat for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. 4 Add the onions and shredded carrots, then stir-fry for 3 minutes until the potato strips are cooked through but still crispy.
5. 5 Add salt and minced garlic, then stir for 60 seconds.
6. 6 Drizzle sesame oil over the stovetop and sprinkle with roasted sesame seeds and chopped scallions.
