Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Rinse the blanched sweet potato stems immediately in cold water to preserve their vibrant color and crisp texture.
  • Marinating the stems for 10 minutes beforehand ensures the seasoning penetrates deeply, preventing surface-only flavor.
  • Always add the perilla seed powder together with half a cup of water to avoid dryness and achieve a smooth, moist stir-fry.
  • Spread the cooked dish on a wide plate right after cooking to prevent sogginess caused by residual heat and maintain crispness.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy sweet potato stems that are tender and crisp without their natural chewiness.
  • Fans of the rich, nutty, and mild taste of perilla seed powder.
  • People looking to make a nutritious, seasonal side dish using fresh vegetables.
