Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Due to the cooking method of heating sugar and oil together, it is difficult to reuse the leftover cooking oil. To avoid wasting oil, it is recommended to cook in batches of no more than 2 sweet potatoes at a time.
  • The sugar coating on the finished mattang does not become sticky and adhere like a typical corn syrup glaze, so the pieces do not stick together excessively after cooking.
  • Since the sugar will not burn before the oil starts boiling vigorously, you can safely begin cooking over high heat.
  • If you prefer a sweeter taste, you can increase the amount of sugar to 2 tablespoons according to your preference.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to drastically reduce the tedious process of making syrup separately and coating the ingredients.
  • Those who want a crispy, transparent-textured mattang that doesn't stick to their hands or teeth.
  • Those who want to make delicious sweet potato dishes without failure, using minimal cooking tools and in a short amount of time.
