Potato candy.
Deep-fryingIngredients
- 500g of potatoes (2 large ones or 3 medium ones).
- Total of 5 tablespoons of cooking oil (3 tablespoons for initial grilling, 2 tablespoons for the syrup).
- 2 tablespoons of sugar.
- 1 tablespoon of plum vinegar.
- A small amount of black sesame seeds or nut flour.
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
Cook in the microwave for 5 minutes to ensure it's fully cooked inside. (Add 1-2 minutes depending on the power of your microwave).
Heat 3 tablespoons of cooking oil in a pan over medium heat, and cook the potatoes until their surfaces are golden brown.
Remove the roasted potatoes from the pan and set them aside. In the same pan, add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of honey (or corn syrup).
In a small saucepan over low heat, slowly dissolve the sugar to create a syrup.
Once the sugar has dissolved, add the potatoes and lightly coat them before turning on the heat.
Place the potatoes on a sheet of aluminum foil, making sure they are not touching each other.
After sprinkling with black sesame seeds or nut flour, place in the refrigerator for 5 minutes to chill.
