Pommes De Terre Persillees Parsleyed Potatoes Recipes

PARSLEY POTATOES

Steps:

• If you bought pre-washed potatoes, place them in a pot of water and bring to boil. If they're not pre-washed, then scrub your potatoes to make sure that they're clean. Once the water is boiling, add a generous amount of salt (1 to 1.5 tablespoons). Let the potatoes boil for about 30 minutes, until fork tender.
• Chop your onions. Heat up olive oil in a skillet and then add your onions, sprinkle with some salt and pepper. Sauté the onions until soft, and set aside.
• Wash and dry your parsley (you will need the whole bunch). Cut off the stems and chop the leaves.
• Drain the potatoes, add them to the onions, and then add parsley. Combine and mix everything together, adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and serve.

POMMES PERSILLADE (POTATOES WITH PARSLEY AND GARLIC)

Steps:

• Cut the potatoes into 3/8-inch cubes. Place in a sieve, and rinse well under cool tap water. Place in a bowl with water to cover until ready to cook.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil. Drain the potatoes, pay dry with paper towels, and add to the hot oil. Sauté over high heat for 12 to 14 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are browned on all sides.
• Meanwhile, chop the garlic and parsley together until finely minced, and set the mixture aside. (This is a persillade.) Add the salt, pepper, and persillade to the potatoes in the skillet, tossing to combine. Serve immediately.

POMMES DE TERRE A LA PARISIENNE (PARSLEYED POTATO BALLS)

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and, using melon-ball cutter, cut into marblesized shapes. As they are cut drop them into cold water. Drain.
• Put potatoes into saucepan and add cold water to cover. Bring to boil and cook about a minute.
• Heat oil in heavy skillet large enough to hold them in one layer. Add potatoes and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook over high heat, shaking skillet and stirring potatoes so they cook evenly, about a minute. Reduce heat to low and continue cooking, shaking skillet occasionally, about 8 minutes or until potatoes are browned on outside and tender throughout.
• Drain potatoes in sieve and return to skillet. Add butter. When it is melted toss potatoes to coat well. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

POMMES DE TERRE PERSILLADE

Steps:

• Bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil over medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and let air dry.
• Coat a large saute pan with clarified butter. Bring the pan to a medium-high heat. Add the potatoes and season with salt. Saute until the potatoes are golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
• When ready to serve, remove from the heat and stir in the butter and parsley.

POTATOES PERSILLADE

Steps:

• Using a chef's knife, trim the unpeeled potatoes into rectangular blocks. Cut each into 1/4-inch thick slices. Stack two or more slices together and cut into 1/4-inch julienne strips. Cut these strips into 1/4-inch dice and place in a saucepan, covered with cold water, until ready to cook.
• Place the potatoes in cold water, bring to a boil, then immediately take off the heat and drain. Allow the potatoes to air dry. Meanwhile, prepare the persillade by mixing together the garlic and parsley. It is possible to prepare the dish ahead to this point.
• If the potatoes aren't thoroughly dry, blot them with towels. Heat the oil in a very large skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook, tossing occasionally, until they brown lightly, 6 to 8 minutes. You may drain and discard oil at this point, if desired. Add the butter and continue sauteing for another 5 minutes or longer to brown the potatoes completely. Just before serving, toss the potatoes with the garlic and parsley over medium heat for about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
