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."

  1. I just loved this! The combination of carrots and potatoes was unique and the ponzu sauce really set it apart as far being different from the oridinary. It was very quick and very easy. I did go ahead and use the whole carrot and julienned it with the mandoline. Great creation phopot.
