Nagaimo appetizer with Motoko's spicy wasabi soy sauce
This nagaimo appetizer with Motoko's spicy wasabi soy sauce is made of small bite-size pieces of the Japanese mountain potato (yam) and topped with parsley.
Start rinsing, peeling the nagaimo and rinsing it again.
Cut the nagaimo in bite size pieces, first into slices then further cutting them into halves or quarter slices. Be cautious as the yam can be slippery once peeled.
Make the spicy wasabi sauce., also chopping the red onion and parsley finely.
Place the nagaimo in a small salad bowl, add the sauce, then parsley and onion on top.
