Description

Bite into golden, pan-crisped baby potatoes coated in a zesty gochujang-honey mayo dressing. Warm garlic and nutty sesame oil shimmer through each forkful, while fresh scallions and sesame seeds brighten every crunchy mouthful.


Ingredients

  • 500 grams baby potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons gochujang
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 scallion thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds


Instructions

  1. Wash the potatoes and cut larger ones in half for even cooking.
  2. Place potatoes in a pot of salted water, bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes.
  3. Drain and let potatoes cool slightly, then pat dry with a kitchen towel.
  4. Toss potatoes with vegetable oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  5. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and arrange potatoes cut side down, cooking until golden brown and crispy, about 3–4 minutes per side.
  6. In a bowl, whisk together gochujang, mayonnaise, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and soy sauce to make the dressing.
  7. Transfer crispy potatoes to a serving bowl, pour dressing over, and gently toss to coat.
  8. Garnish with thinly sliced scallion and toasted sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, let potatoes sit undisturbed in the skillet for the full browning time.
  • Adjust gochujang quantity to match your desired spice level.
  • Serve immediately to maintain the potatoes’ crisp texture.
  • Dressing can be made up to two days ahead and stored in the refrigerator.
