Braised New Potatoes Recipes

BRAISED NEW POTATOES

Steps:

• Arrange the potatoes in a single layer in a Dutch oven or other wide, deep pan. Place the Dutch oven over medium heat and add the chicken stock, garlic, thyme, butter, and salt to taste.
• Cover the pan with a lid and bring to a boil over mediumish heat. Reduce the heat and gently simmer, shaking the pan or stirring the potatoes often, until the potatoes are just tender, 12 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes.
• Remove the lid and continue to cook, turning occasionally and keeping an eye on the heat so the butter doesn't burn, until the potatoes take on browned splotches on all sides, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Use a slotted spoon to transfer the potatoes to a dish and season with pepper. Devour immediately.

BRAISED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Heat the oil and butter over medium-low heat in a large ovenproof skillet. Add onion, and cook until very soft, about 15 minutes. Stir in the potatoes and shallots and half the rosemary; season with salt and pepper. Raise heat to medium-high, and cook until potatoes begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and add remaining rosemary and the stock.
• Cover skillet, and transfer to the oven; cook until potatoes are fork-tender, about 10 minutes (timing will vary with size of potatoes). Uncover, and cook until liquid is reduced, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped rosemary. Serve warm.

OLIVE OIL BRAISED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the grill. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Put the potato slices on the hot grill and cook for about 2 minutes on each side to mark them. Remove from the grill and place them in a single layer in a baking pan. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Add enough olive oil to reach 1/3 up the sides of the potatoes. Turn the potatoes over to coat with the oil. Scatter the thyme and garlic cloves over the potatoes, sprinkle with a little more salt, if desired, and place in the oven.
• After about 15 to 20 minutes, the potatoes will be tender. Remove from the oven and let them cool in the oil. Serve at room temperature.
• Chef's notes: Using a high quality olive oil will impart its flavor to the potato.

BEER, BACON & ONION BRAISED NEW POTATOES

Steps:

• Bacon and Onions -- In a large sauce pan, add the butter and bacon and saute until the bacon starts to render some of the drippings, just a couple of minutes on medium low heat. You DON'T want the bacon to crisp up. Then add in the onions, garlic, herbs and stir another couple of minutes.
• Potatoes and Beer -- If you are using bigger potatoes, you may want to cut them in quarters. Add in the potatoes and toss well to combine all the flavors. Then add in a pinch of salt, pepper and the beer. Go easy on the salt and pepper as you can re-season once the dish is cooked. It will take about 30 minutes, covered, but I like to vent the lid just a bit so some of the liquid will evaporate. Cook until the potatoes are tender. Once tender, re-check if you need to add any additional salt and pepper. And again, cooking time can vary.
• NOTE: As one reviewer mentioned, Theirs took much longer. Remember this depends on the size of your pot, and most importantly on the size of the potatoes. The time is NOT set in stone as this can vary.
• Serve -- Just serve the potatoes with the sauce in a large bowl and make sure you give them a big spoon so they can add some of the sauce over the potatoes. Garnish with fresh parsley. ENJOY!
