Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1.5 cm thick half-moons.
Slice the onion into half-moons and finely chop the garlic.
Put the potatoes, onion, garlic, soy sauce, gochugaru, sugar, and water in a pot.
Cover and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes.
Open the lid and gently turn the potatoes.
Cook for 8 more minutes, until the sauce is glossy and reduced.
Add the sesame oil, sesame seeds, and scallions, and serve without breaking the potatoes.
💡 Tip: Cutting the potatoes to an even thickness keeps the edges from falling apart as the sauce reduces.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve as banchan with hot rice, pickled cucumber, and toasted sesame seeds.
