Potato and Ham Stir-Fry (Gamja-haem-bokkeum)

(Potato and Ham Stir-Fry, 감자햄볶음)

Gamja-haem-bokkeum is a traditional dish originating from South Korea. It's usually made with a combination of potatoes, cooked ham, garlic, onions, carrots, soy sauce, sesame oil, vegetable oil, and sugar. The potatoes, garlic, onions, ham, and carrots are cooked in oil over medium-high heat until the onions are soft and translucent.


The soy sauce, sugar, and water are added to the pan, and the mixture is cooked over low heat until the potatoes and carrots are tender. If properly prepared, all ingredients should be glazed and the potatoes shouldn't be mushy. Sesame oil is stirred into the dish and gamja-haem-bokkeum is then served while still hot.
