  4. Pour the sauce mixture over the sautéed potatoes, cover and simmer for 5-7 minutes over medium-low heat.
  5. Remove the lid, and let the sauce simmer uncovered for another 3-5 minutes, stirring gently until a thick glaze forms.
  6. Once glazed, remove from heat and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds before serving.
