These potatoes make any meal seem fancy. Especially good with steak or roasts. Ingredients:
2 lbs white or red skinned potatoes |
olive oil |
kosher salt |
Directions:
1. Wash and quarter or sixth potatoes, depending on their size
2. Place in large stockpot and cover with cold water about 2 inches over them
3. Bring to a boil and let boil 2 to 3 minutes
4. Immediately remove from heat and drain
5. Put potatoes back in stockpot
6. Put the lid on top, and using oven mitts or hot pads grab hold of pot and lid TIGHTLY.
7. Shake vigorously up and down several times to beat the potatoes- they should seem abused
8. Uncover, being careful of the steam
9. Splash olive oil over them- if you think you put too much, that's about the right amount.
10. I've never measured, but I guess at least 1/4 cup
11. Sprinkle coarse kosher salt over same- if you think you have put too much, that's the right amount
12. Mix gently with rubber spatula or spoon
13. Pour into pyrex casserole dish or metal roasting pan, drizzling remainng oil and salt over them
14. I prefer a metal roasting pan
15. Place in pre-heated 400 degree Fahrenheit oven and cook until golden brown, about an hour or so
16. You can cook these along with a roast or whatever at a lower temperature, just increase their cooking time
17. Scrape them up off pan with spatula and enjoy!
