Description
A comforting side dish featuring baby potatoes braised in a sweet and savory sauce, perfect for any Korean meal.
Ingredients
- 1 pound baby potatoes
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- Chopped green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Rinse the baby potatoes and place them in a pot. Cover with water and boil until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In a pan, combine soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, water, and minced garlic over medium heat.
- Add the boiled potatoes to the pan and gently toss to coat.
- Simmer for about 5-10 minutes until the sauce thickens and the potatoes are well-glazed.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Notes
Boil the potatoes until fork-tender but not too soft; this keeps them firm during the braising process. Adjust sweetness to your taste by changing the sugar amount.
