Cut the potatoes into small cubes and dry them.
Fry the potatoes in hot oil for 10 minutes, until golden.
Puree the shallots, garlic, peppers, and shrimp paste.
Fry the spice paste with the bay leaves for 6 minutes.
Add the sweet soy sauce and salt, then thicken the sauce for 2 minutes.
Add the fried potatoes to the pan and coat them with the sauce.
Serve hot.
💡 Tip: Fry the potatoes until golden before adding them to the sauce; the starchy surface holds the sambal better.
