Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 900 g Baby potatoes
- 150 g Edamame (shelled)
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 3 stalks Green onions
- 30 g Fresh cilantro
- 1 tbsp Toasted sesame seeds
- 3 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Sesame oil
- 2 tbsp Rice vinegar
- 2 tsp Honey
- 1 tbsp Fresh ginger
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 tsp Red chili flakes
- 1 tsp Salt
- 750 ml Water
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly. Cut larger ones in half, leaving smaller ones whole for even cooking.
Bring 750 ml of water to a boil in a large pot. Add the baby potatoes and 1 teaspoon of salt. Boil for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
While the potatoes cook, prepare the dressing. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, and red chili flakes. Set aside.
Cook the edamame according to package instructions (usually steaming or boiling for 2-3 minutes). Drain and allow to cool.
Dice the red bell pepper into small pieces, slice the green onions thinly, and roughly chop the fresh cilantro.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked and slightly warm potatoes, edamame, red bell pepper, green onions, and cilantro.
Pour the prepared dressing over the potato mixture and toss gently to coat everything evenly. Adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or soy sauce to taste.
Transfer the warm salad to a serving dish and garnish with toasted sesame seeds.
Serve immediately for the best flavor, though the salad can also be enjoyed at room temperature.
