Fried burdock(gobo)

Gobo is a root vegetable and it has a lot of fiber, but not many people like it as it is really hard and has soil like taste.  However, this vegetable is really healthy and low calories.  After you cut gobo about 5cm pieces, soak in water about 10 minutes then boil them.  Drain and soak in a bowl with soy sauce and mirin for about 30 minutes.  Then sprinkle potato starch and fry them only 2 minutes.  Yummy snack!
