Fingerling Potato And Shallots Recipes

CRISPY FINGERLING POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the potatoes into a large pot and cover them with water. Add a big pinch of salt, then cover, and put over high heat. Bring to a boil, uncover, and cook just until the potatoes start to soften but are not cooked all the way through, about 10 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return them to the warm pot. Shake the potatoes around to roughen up the sides and to let them dry out. Put them into a bowl.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Put a baking sheet in the oven to preheat.
• Add the olive oil, grill seasoning, paprika and pepper, to taste, to the potatoes and toss to coat. Spread the potatoes out onto the preheated baking sheet and roast them until they are cooked through and crispy, about 20 to 25 minutes, flipping the potatoes once halfway through the cooking time. Remove the potatoes from the oven to a serving bowl and serve.

FINGERLING POTATO AND SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Slice the fingerlings to bite size. Boil in water until tender. While potatoes are boiling, dice a shallot and start cooking in the olive oil, enough to coat the pan. Add the potatoes and cook until lightly browned. Salt and pepper to taste.

PERFECT FINGERLING POTATOES

Steps:

• In a large pot, combine the salt, water, and potatoes and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, approximately 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the pot to a cooling rack and let stand for 5 to 7 minutes. Serve as is or with butter, pepper, or chives.

FINGERLING POTATO SALAD WITH SHERRY-MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• For vinaigrette:
• Combine mustard and vinegar in small bowl. Whisk in oil, then herbs. Season with sea salt and pepper.
• For potatoes:
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Spread sea salt in even layer on rimmed baking sheet; arrange potatoes over salt, spacing slightly apart. Cover sheet with foil and bake until potatoes are tender, about 1 hour. Remove from oven, uncover, and cool to lukewarm.
• Meanwhile, cook bacon in medium skillet over medium heat until brown and crisp. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
• Peel potatoes; cut in half lengthwise. Place warm potatoes in medium bowl. Add bacon, shallots, eggs, onions, and vinaigrette. Toss well and serve.

ROASTED POTATOES AND SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in lowest position.
• Toss shallots with 1 1/2 tablespoon oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a 13-by 9-inch baking pan, spreading evenly.
• Roast, stirring occasionally, until shallots are golden, about 30 minutes.
• Toss potatoes with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl, then add to shallots.
• Roast, turning occasionally, until vegetables are tender and potatoes are crusty, 40 to 50 minutes.

ASPARAGUS, FINGERLING POTATOES AND SHALLOT FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°.
• In a 10-inch non-stick skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of the oil together with the butter over low heat.
• When the butter has melted, add the shallots and potatoes, season with salt and pepper and cook, covered, until the potatoes are tender, stirring often.
• Transfer the mixture to a colander, drain well and set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the eggs and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, season with salt and pepper and whisk until well blended.
• Fold in the reserved asparagus and the potato/shallot mixture.
• Add the remaining olive oil to the skillet and set over medium heat.
• When hot, add the egg mixture and disperse the asparagus and potatoes evenly among the eggs.
• Cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until the bottom is just set.
• Sprinkle the top of the egg mixture with the remaining Parmesan and bake in the center of the preheated oven, for about 16 to 20 minutes or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly browned.
• Remove the frittata from the oven.
• Loosen the frittata if necessary by running a spatula around the insides of the skillet and carefully slide the frittata onto a large serving platter.
• Garnish with fresh chives and serve warm or at room temperature, cut into wedges, accompanied by a well-seasoned green salad and a crusty French baguette.
