Spicy Korean Potatoes (Gamja Jorim) image

This is a wonderful side dish from Korea. At nearly every meal, Koreans have a custom of serving a variety of different banchan (or side dishes) that complement the main entree, soups, and other courses that are typically served with each meal. This banchan (or side dish) is a little different than other similar recipes in that...

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 Tbsp vegetable oil (or canola oil)
2 large potatoes, peeled and diced
1 medium onion, sliced
1 Tbsp gochujang (korean red pepper paste)
1 tsp gochugaru (korean red chile powder)
2 clove garlic, crushed
1 tsp low-sodium soy sauce
1 tsp white granulated sugar
1 tsp light corn syrup
1 Tbsp water (or more if needed, for consistency)
1 Tbsp sesame seeds (for garnish)

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add potatoes and onions, and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes or until the onions are soft.
  • 2. Add the gochujang, gochugaru, garlic, soy sauce, sugar, corn syrup, and 1 Tbsp water (adding more water, 1 Tbsp at a time, if needed). Reduce heat to low, cover the skillet, and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender and lightly browned on the outside.
  • 3. Garnish with sesame seeds, and serve immediately while still hot. (Another option is allow the potatoes to cool and served at room temperature).

I've tried many different recipes for spicy Korean potatoes, but this is by far the best. The potatoes are always crispy and the sauce is always flavorful.
