Love these! I used four large red scrubbed unpeeled potatoes, added the garlic after potatoes had cooked for a while, and used 1/2 large sweet onion. I did not add the corn syrup. I used low sodium soy sauce, and needed to sprinkle some kosher salt over the dish when the sesame seeds were added. Will make again for sure. Tried to give 5 stars but they won't register for some reason.

This was ok. It didn't taste like what I usually get at Korean restaurants though, so I was disappointed based on what other reviewers had said.

These were SO freakin' tasty! I added the sesame oil and some toasted sesame seeds after cooking, and that really put it over the top. So good! Thanks for posting, Mika! This one's a keeper.
