This dish is made by parboiling thinly-sliced potatoes, sun-drying them, then deep-frying them in oil. It is a common dish enjoyed in the Gangwon State region, where potatoes are widely grown. It is similar to potato chips in flavor. Potatoes came into Korea through northeast China in the late Joseon period. They were quickly adopted in mountainous regions such as Gangwon State. Potatoes are eaten boiled, roasted, or in various dishes. Gamja Bugak requires a lot of investment in time and effort, but it is the best way to enjoy the crispness of potatoes.
