Description
Soft, chewy and delicious potato mochi entangled in a sweet soy sauce. The perfect quick, healthy and easy snack or side dish!
Ingredients
Potato Mochi
- 1 large potato, cooked potatoes (290g // with skin on, cooked and peeled after)
- 2 tbsp potato starch (25g)
- 2 tbsp of milk, as needed (30ml)
- 1 tbsp vegan butter
- Nori for wrapping
Sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce 30ml
- 2 tbsp sugar 25g-g
- 1 tbsp mirin 15-25g
- 1 tbsp sake (or sub more mirin, it will be slightly more sweet)
Instructions
- Microwave the potatoes with a damp paper towel around it at 600 W for 5 minutes or until soft. Allow potato to cool.
- In the mean time, mix all the sauce ingredients together. Cut small rectangles of nori to wrap the potato mochi.
- Once potato are cooled, remove skin and mash. Mix in the potato starch and non-dairy milk little by little. Adjust amount accordingly depending on moisture of potato.

I already love potatoes but this made me love them even more, super tasty!
Super easy to make and they turned out delicious! Crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. The nori gives it a nice salty umami flavor which really makes the dish
A quick and delicious way to take potatoes to the next level! These are now a family favorite 🙂
Made these as snacks for some friends on game night and they loved them. The recipe was quick and easy, definitely making these for others to try.
Me and my girlfriend love this recipe. It’s quick easy and super tasty. We’ve been trying more vegan recipes and Japanese food is a our favorite and once we found Lisa’s Instagram page we were hooked.
Thank you so much for this recipe. It was pretty easy and super tasty.
It was the very first time I cooked vegan!
I love all of your recipes ~
this recipe is so easy! vegan, comforting, and a great way to start the morning! the way the sauce coats the mochi is incredible
i didn’t have potato starch or sake so i used more mirin and tapioca flour instead. they came out amazing! i will be adding potato starch to my pantry tho i’m sure it makes it even better!! 10/10 my new fav morning recipe
Easy and delicious!! I loved it a lot. I will make this for my family as well 😀
These are so quick, easy, and delicious!!
Lisa’s insta always gets me trying new recipes and I’m so glad she does. These potato mochi are so satisfyingly crunchy and soft at the same time; sweet & salty on the surface and melt in your mouth potato goodness at the centre. I’ve found par-boiling the potatoes works just as well especially if your microwave isn’t as powerful (also you can peel them first this way to avoid burning your fingers). I first made these at a friend’s with a gas cooker and they came out perfectly, had to try a few times to get the same results back home with electric so make sure to get the pan nice & hot to get that sizzling crunchy caramelised exterior. Could eat these everyday.
