Screaming Potatoes Recipes

SCREAMING POTATOES

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in the bottom of a large cast iron skillet.
• Place about 2 tablespoons of water in the bottom of the pot and sprinkle with the salt.
• Cover tightly and place over low heat.
• Cook for 40-50 minutes.
• Do not lift the lid during this time.
• Occasionally give the pan a shake.

CREAMED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until tender. Meanwhile, in another saucepan, melt butter. Stir in the flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened., Drain potatoes and place in a large serving bowl. Add cream sauce; toss gently to coat. Sprinkle with paprika and parsley.

SMASHED POTATOES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVES

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a steamer basket fitted over a large pot of boiling water. Cover and steam for about 15 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
• Transfer potatoes to a large bowl. Add the broth, and coarsely mash the potatoes. Stir in the sour cream and chives. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and serve.

CRISPIEST EVER POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Add the potatoes to a large saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Add the baking soda and 1 tablespoon salt to the water. Cover, place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Uncover and continue to boil until the potatoes give easily when pierced with the tip of a knife, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and set the strainer over the top of the pan for a few minutes so the outsides of the potatoes can dry.
• Dump the potatoes onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and toss with the garlic, thyme and rosemary until the potatoes are completely coated in the oil. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Using a small juice glass or glass bowl, smash each potato firmly but gently. (You want to just crack the skins and flatten slightly while keeping the potatoes mostly intact.)
• Roast until the bottoms of the potatoes are deep golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and flip the potatoes using a spatula. Roast until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on both sides, an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a platter with a metal spatula. Serve while hot.

CRISPY SHAKEN POTATOES WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F.
• Cut the potatoes into 1-inch chunks. Place in a large stockpot, cover in cold water and add a teaspoon of kosher salt. Set over high heat, cover, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until fork tender but still firm in the center.
• Drain the potatoes in a colander, then place them back in the empty stockpot. Cover with a lid and shake the pot vigorously for a few seconds, until the surface of the potato is fuzzy; this will help the formation of a crust. Season potatoes generously with salt.
• Add the oil to a 13x18 inch sheet or roasting pan and place in the oven until oil is hot and almost smoking, about 5 minutes. Remove the roasting pan and carefully add the potatoes. Return pan to oven and roast for 30 minutes. Flip the potatoes, scatter with rosemary, and continue to cook until the potatoes are crispy and brown, 10 to 15 minutes more.
• Return potatoes to the oven to rewarm at 350°F for 10 minutes before serving.
