Gamja Jorim (Korean Braised Potatoes Side Dish)
Report
Make an easy side dish that whispers “take a bite. You know you want to.” While everyone else is serving mashed potatoes for Thanksgiving, this Gamja Jorim, or Korean braised potato side dish, is a no-peel, no-mess kind of dish that saves you time and plays nice with everything it's served with. Because what do potatoes NOT pair well with?? I’ll wait.

Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup light soy sauce
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 pound baby potatoes cut into halves
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds optional for garnish
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine water, soy sauce, and honey. Mix together until honey is dissolved. Set aside.
- Heat a large pan to medium-high heat. Add about a tablespoon of oil then toss in baby potatoes. Cook about 5 - 7 minutes or until they’re golden, stirring occasionally.
- Pour in the sauce and cook for another 15 - 20 minutes, or until the sauce has absorbed into the potatoes and become a sticky glaze. Remember to stir them occasionally so they don’t burn or get stuck to the pan.
- Turn off heat. Drizzle on sesame oil and sprinkle on sesame seeds, if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
- Potatoes: Waxy potatoes like yukon gold or baby red potatoes are perfect for this recipe because they hold their shape better than starchier potatoes like russets.
- Browning Potatoes: For maximum browning, cut potatoes into halves or quarters to create flat sides. Keep them similar in size for even cooking.
- Care for Potatoes: As potatoes cook, the skinless sides become tender. Stir gently to prevent splitting or mushiness.
