Instructions

  1. 1

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

  2. 2

    Add potato, onion, soy sauce, water, sugar, and garlic to a pot and bring to a boil.

  3. 3

    Reduce to medium heat and simmer 12 minutes until potatoes are half-cooked.

  4. 4

    Add quail eggs and syrup, then braise for 8 more minutes.

  5. 5

    When sauce is reduced, add sesame oil and simmer 1 more minute.

  6. 6

    Turn off heat and finish with sesame seeds.

Tips

Check doneness midway so potatoes do not fall apart.
Overnight refrigeration helps quail eggs absorb deeper soy flavor.
