Korean Braised Potatoes (Gamja Jorim)

Step 1

Wash the potatoes and cut into about one inch pieces. For my potatoes, I just cut them in half.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and water. Set aside.

Step 3

In a medium non stick pan, heat oil on medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook for about 5-6 minutes. Potatoes should have a light golden color.

Step 4

Pour in the sauce mixture. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Remove the lid and let the liquid thicken to become a glaze on the potatoes. Gently toss the potatoes in the glaze. Test a potato to make sure it's cooked all the way through (if not, just add a little more water). Turn off the heat. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and enjoy!
