Gamja Jorim (Braised Potatoes)

• 份量: 4 servings
• 准备时间: 10 minutes
• 总时间: 30 minutes

配料

1 ½ pounds potatoes (about 3 medium size)

1 carrot (about 3 ounces) (See note 1)

2 to 3 green chili peppers (or 1/2 green bell pepper)

1/4 medium onion

1 tablespoon cooking oil

3 tablespoons soy sauce (or 2 T soy sauce and 1 T gochujang See note 2)

1 tablespoon sugar

1 tablespoon rice wine (or mirin) (You can omit it if unavailable)

1 tablespoon corn syrup (or oilgodang) (Or use 1 tablespoon more sugar)

1 teaspoon minced garlic

pinch black pepper

3/4 cup water

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1/2 teaspoon roasted sesame seeds

步骤

Peel and cut potatoes into about 1-inch cubes. Cut the carrot, peppers, and onion into big chunks.

In a small bowl, combine all the braising liquid ingredients except the sesame oil and seeds. Stir well.

In a non-stick pan (or a small pot), sauté the potatoes in cooking oil over medium heat for 4 - 5 minutes, stirring occasionally so the potatoes don't stick to the pan.

Add the sauce mix and bring it to a boil over high heat. Drop the carrot pieces in. Cover, and reduce the heat to medium and cook until the potatoes are almost cooked through (about 5 to 6 minutes, depending on the type or size of potatoes). The potatoes should be firm and not mushy.

Stir in the green peppers and onion, and continue to boil (uncover this time) until the sauce is reduced and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. The potatoes will continue to soak up the sauce even after being cooked. Stir in the sesame oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
