Ingredients- 2 large potatoes
- A little butter
- 1-2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1-2 Tbsp corn syrup or oligodang (Korean oligosaccharide)
- Parmesan cheese powder, to taste
- Dried parsley, to taste
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare 2 large potatoes that have been washed thoroughly. The key to a great potato dish is the slicing technique; aim to slice them as thinly and uniformly as possible to create the accordion shape. The thinner the slices, the crispier they will be when baked.
Step 2
You can either peel the potatoes or leave the skins on for baking. Leaving the skins on can create a more appealing presentation. After thinly slicing the potatoes, soak them in cold running water to remove excess starch. This step helps prevent the slices from sticking together and ensures extra crispiness.
Step 3
Once the starch is removed, drain the potatoes and carefully pat them dry with paper towels. Thoroughly drying the surface of the potato slices is crucial to prevent oil splattering when frying or baking and to achieve maximum crispiness.
Step 4
Now, let’s make the delicious sauce to brush onto the potatoes. You’ll need 1-2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1-2 tablespoons of corn syrup or oligodang, and a knob of butter.
Step 5
Place these ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl and heat until the butter is completely melted, or melt them gently in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir well until all ingredients are combined into a smooth sauce.
Step 6
Carefully spread out the potato slices that have been cut with slits.
Step 7
Using a brush or spoon, generously apply the prepared butter and soy sauce mixture between the slices of each potato. Ensure the butter thoroughly coats the potato surfaces. This step will deepen the flavor when baked.
Step 8
Here are the potatoes baked without the peel, just with slits made. Sprinkle a generous amount of Parmesan cheese powder over these, and finish with a dusting of dried parsley for a beautiful accordion potato dish! Serve warm for melted cheese goodness.
Step 9
I tried baking them in two ways. I also baked potatoes with the peel on, which were simply seasoned without the sauce, and they turned out delicious and wholesome. For another variation, you could lightly brush them with butter while they’re still hot, sprinkle a little sugar and salt, and bake them briefly for a different twist. Try creating your own unique accordion potato creation with these methods!
