Sweet Korean Potatoes with Sesame Seeds




















This side dish plays well with the Korean BBQ. If I ever own a food truck these two are so on the menu.

Ingredients-
1 1/4lb Small red or white new potatoes
1/3 Cup Korean BBQ marinade(see Korean BBQ post)
2 Tbl Oil(I used grape seed oil use what you have)
2 Tbl Water
2 Tbl Corn syrup
1 Tbl Sesame seeds(Sesame seed is one of the oldest oilseed crops known, domesticated well over 3000 years ago.)

Directions-
1. Rinse potatoes, in a med. sauce pot fill half way with water and bring to a boil.
2. Add potatoes to boiling water for 4-5 min., insert knife into potato to test firmness. Potato should be firm yet easily pierced with knife.
3. Strain potatoes and set out to dry.
4. In a wok or large saute pan heat oil over medium high heat, once hot add potatoes and saute for 2-3 min.
5. Add water and marinade, cook until sauce starts to thicken.
6. Add Corn syrup, increase heat to high. Mix until all potatoes are coated with sauce and have a nice caramel color.
7. Sprinkle on sesame seeds… enjoy
