Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb baby potatoes
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp grated ginger
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 0.5 tsp chili flakes
- 2 stalks green onion
- 1 tsp black sesame seeds
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp neutral oil (for grilling)
Instructions
Thoroughly wash and scrub the baby potatoes. Cut them in half if they're larger, leaving smaller ones whole.
Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until they are just fork-tender but not falling apart. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, and chili flakes.
Toss the partially cooked potatoes in the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the grill.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates with the neutral oil to prevent sticking.
Place the potatoes on the grill cut-side down. Grill for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they develop a deep golden caramelization and slight char marks.
While the potatoes are grilling, chop the green onions into thin slices.
Once the potatoes are done, transfer them to a serving platter. Sprinkle with chopped green onions, black sesame seeds, and an optional pinch of salt if needed.
Serve warm as a side dish or appetizer and enjoy the bold Asian-inspired flavors!
