Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Prepare the Potatoes: Rinse the potato chunks in a colander under cold water to remove excess starch. Drain thoroughly. (2 minutes)

02

Step
8 mins

Par-Cook the Potatoes: Place the potatoes in a large, microwave-safe bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of grapeseed oil and salt; toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with a microwave-safe lid or plastic wrap (vented). Microwave on high for 4 minutes. Stir the potatoes, re-cover, and continue microwaving until they are easily pierced with a fork, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the potatoes to a colander to drain any excess moisture. (8 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (2 minutes)

04

Step
3 mins

Prepare the Gochujang Glaze: In the same bowl used for cooking the potatoes, whisk together the gochujang, remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of grapeseed oil, soy sauce, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes until well combined. (3 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Coat the Potatoes: Return the par-cooked potatoes to the bowl with the Gochujang glaze. Toss gently but thoroughly to ensure each potato piece is evenly coated with the flavorful mixture. (2 minutes)

06

Step
20 mins

Roast the Potatoes: Spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven, stirring once or twice during cooking, until the potatoes are golden brown and slightly crispy, about 20 minutes. (20 minutes)

07

Step
2 mins

Garnish and Serve: Remove the roasted potatoes from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Garnish generously with sliced scallions and squeeze fresh lime juice over the top for a bright finish. Serve immediately and enjoy! (2 minutes)

For extra crispy potatoes, ensure the potatoes are as dry as possible after par-cooking.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your preferred spice level.
Gochujang brands can vary in spice level. Taste and adjust accordingly.
These potatoes are a fantastic accompaniment to grilled meats, Korean BBQ, or enjoyed as a snack.
