Sweet Potato Brown Rice with Soy and Scallions
Goguma-bap is a traditional Korean dish of sweet potatoes (goguma) and cooked rice (bap). Our take has a pure sweet potato flavor accented by chewy short-grain rice; we prefer the nuttiness of brown short-grain rice for added complexity. The sweet potatoes and rice usually are steamed together plain, then seasoned at the table with a mixture of soy sauce. We opt to season the sweet potatoes with just a little of this sauce before cooking to make them especially flavorful.

Simple, yummy, and a great platform recipe
We really enjoyed this! I substituted farro for the brown rice (I really like how toothsome the farro is), but everything else was according to recipe. It was great! The sauce was great, although we wound up adding a bit more soy sauce to the finished product. I wonder aloud if , when seasoning the potatoes, using the sauce minus the scallions, or allowing a slight bit of time to marinate, might make them even more flavorful.
Seems like this could be used with any variety of ingredients on hand. We're interested in using gochugaru and / or kimchi in the final serving next time around.
