SIMPLE BRAISED POTATOES

Steps:

• Scrub the potatoes, then cut potatoes into 1-inch chunks.
• Heat 3 tablespoons butter in a deep skillet or broad pot over medium-high heat. Add potatoes, onions, garlic, a sprig of thyme or rosemary, and salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until potatoes begin to turn golden, 10 minutes.
• Add good stock to barely cover the potatoes (about 2 cups). Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender and liquid is reduced, about 30 minutes.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper, then serve garnished with thyme or rosemary.

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.

GAMJA JORIM (BRAISED POTATOES)

Steps:

• Peel and cut potatoes into about 1-inch cubes. Cut the carrot, peppers, and onion into big chunks.
• In a small bowl, combine all the braising liquid ingredients except the sesame oil and seeds. Stir well.
• In a non-stick pan (or a small pot), sauté the potatoes in cooking oil over medium heat for 4 - 5 minutes, stirring occasionally so the potatoes don't stick to the pan.
• Add the sauce mix and bring it to a boil over high heat. Drop the carrot pieces in. Cover, and reduce the heat to medium and cook until the potatoes are almost cooked through (about 5 to 6 minutes, depending on the type or size of potatoes). The potatoes should be firm and not mushy.
• Stir in the green peppers and onion, and continue to boil (uncover this time) until the sauce is reduced and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. The potatoes will continue to soak up the sauce even after being cooked. Stir in the sesame oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

BRAISED DILL POTATOES

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, arrange potatoes in a single layer. Add broth and butter. Cover and cook over medium-high heat for 12 minutes., Uncover; cook until potatoes are tender and broth is evaporated, 7-10 minutes. Press each potato with a turner to crush slightly. Sprinkle evenly with the dill, salt and pepper. Cook until bottoms are lightly browned, 2-3 minutes longer. Serve with sour cream.

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.

BRAISED POTATOES AND CARROTS

Steps:

• In a large saute pan, heat 4 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat. Add the potatoes and carrots. Cook until browned, about 10 minutes. Add the onion and cook another 5 minutes. Add the garlic and the remaining oil. Cook for 2 more minutes.
• Add the sage, rosemary, and thyme. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the wine and 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer covered for about 8 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking about 4 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the liquid has thickened enough to coat the vegetables.
• (If you need to, you can add more water or wine to coat the vegetables. **Also, I always grind up my rosemary into a powder because I don't like little twigs in my food! HA!).

BRAISED RED POTATOES WITH LEMON AND CHIVES

Steps:

• Arrange potatoes in single layer, cut side down, in 12-inch nonstick skillet. Add water, butter, garlic, thyme, and salt and bring to simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and cook until potatoes are just tender, about 15 minutes.
• Remove lid and use slotted spoon to transfer garlic to a cutting board; discard thyme. Increase heat to medium-high and vigorously simmer, swirling pan occasionally, until water evaporates and butter starts to sizzle, 15 to 20 minutes. When cool enough to handle, mince garlic to paste. Transfer paste to bowl and stir in lemon juice and pepper.
• Continue to cook potatoes, swirling pan frequently, until butter browns and cut sides of potatoes turn spotty brown, 4 to 6 minutes longer. Turn off heat, add garlic mixture and chives and toss to coat.

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.
