There are a few dishes that I could eat everyday and one of them is sweet potato. I had a craving over the weekend for some Korean street food so I whipped up a dish called “Mat-tang”. It’s basically deep fried sweet potatoes coated in toffee and only takes 15 minutes to make. Crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle…. Yum….
You can use either sweet potatoes or normal potatoes but I think sweet potato adds more flavour. I have seen some people making it with apples as well… Fried apples?? hmm, not sure…
I wonder who thought of this amazing dish. In Korea, they even have sweet potato cakes!! There is a store in the middle of Myung-dong in Seoul that has the best Mat-tang ever!! I must remember to take a picture of the store next time I am in Korea to share with everyone. I don’t think there is any store selling Mat-tang in Singapore… What’s your favourite Korean street food?
I’ve just planted two sweet potatoes in my little veggie patch a few days ago, hopefully they will produce enough sweet potatoes to feed my cravings! Any tips on growing sweet potatoes in Singapore? I heard that they grow like weeds…
Good Luck with the new Venture

Not so sure if this is street food but I love a bowl of piping hot rice with kim chi and freshly made Korean pancakes (with oodles of veges and seafood). For me nothing beats this simple, scrumptious and oh so satisfying meal.
Congrats on the launch of your business. Combining both your loves, cuisine and agriculture, you’re bound to be a success at it!
