Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut potatoes into 2 cm cubes and soak in cold water for 5 minutes to remove starch.

  2. 2

    Slice onion thickly and drain the potatoes well.

  3. 3

    Add potatoes, onion, soy sauce, water, sugar, and garlic to a pot and mix.

  4. 4

    Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to low and simmer for 12 minutes.

  5. 5

    When about one-third of the liquid remains, raise heat and reduce until glossy.

  6. 6

    Turn off heat and toss with sesame oil and sesame seeds.

Tips

Soaking potatoes first helps prevent them from breaking.
A final high-heat reduction gives shine and deeper flavor.
