How do you make Daigeko Imo? I need a list of all ingrediants and steps. (However its spelled)?

Question:


I plan on making it for my kid and wife.

Answer:


Daigaku Imo
This means "college potatoes" and they are popular snacks for students in Japan.

Daigaku Imo (Japanese Candied Sweet Potatoes)
1 lb sweet potatoes, cut-up in serving sizes and soaked in water
vegetable oil or canola oil ( for frying)
Sauce
1 cup white sugar ( or you can use brown sugar)
1 1/2-2 tablespoons oil
2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
Fry the cut-up sweet potatoes in oil and drain.
Make sure the potatoes have a crisp exterior.
Make the sauce, heating the oil, sugar and sesame seeds together in a large saucepan.
Remove from heat, add the potatoes, and stir well to thoroughly cover the potatoes.
Place the potatoes on a greased plate or pan so that they do not stick to one another.
Serve warm or cold.
