Preparation

  1. Peel and grate the potato into a bowl. Squeeze the grated potato to drain all the liquid. Discard liquid.
  2. Season the grated potato with the potato starch, pepper flakes, turmeric, five-spice powder, black pepper, and salt. Stir to combine.
  3. Heat a pan over medium heat. Add the cooking oil, and add the potato mixture.
  4. Press down firmly with a spatula until the pancake is evenly thin. Cook until the pancake turns crisp and golden brown, about 3 minutes.
  5. Flip the pancake, and cook until it crisps and turns golden brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
  6. Serve immediately with some chili crunch.
  7. Enjoy!
