Ginger Sauteed Carrot and Potato Slivers
one of my favorite simple chinese dishes is sauteed carrots, which my mom used to make all the time. the natural carmelization makes me so happy and the color is really pretty. this dish came out of my love for my julienne peeler and my need to put ponzu on everything.
