Kofuki Imo (Japanese Powdered Potatoes)

Ingredients

  1. 1 1/3 pounds yukon gold potatoes (peeled)
  2. 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  3. 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  4. 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Cut the peeled potatoes into 1 1/2 inch pieces. Add the pieces to a medium pot and fill with water until it is an inch above the potatoes. Bring the water to a boil and cook until the potatoes are the desired tenderness, about 8 minutes. Don't let them get so tender that they fall apart. Drain.
  2. In a large skillet or pan, combine the soy sauce and sugar over medium high heat. Once bubbling and the sugar is dissolved, add the cooked potato pieces and gently stir until they are well coated. Continue to cook until no liquid remains.
  3. Remove from heat and toss with butter. Serve immediately.
