FRENCH COUNTRY POTATOES RECIPE - (4.5/5)

FRENCH ONION POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Place a layer of sliced onions on the bottom of the baking dish. Add a sprinkle of French onion soup mix and a layer of bacon pieces, followed by layers of potato slices, shredded cheese, and cream. Continue adding layers of the remaining ingredients, ending with a layer of shredded cheese on the top.
• Spray a piece of aluminum foil with cooking spray and cover the baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes and onions are tender, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until nicely browned and bubbly, about 10 minutes more.

ROASTED FRENCH-STYLE POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel and cut the potatoes into 1/2-inch strips.
• Fill a medium bowl with cold water and soak cut potatoes for 15 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking oil.
• Remove the potatoes from the water and dry well.
• Combine white wine, oil, thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl and mix well. Add potatoes and toss to coat. Spread out potatoes on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer without touching.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Turn and continue roasting, turning occasionally, until potatoes are golden brown, an additional 15 to 20 minutes.

FRENCH COUNTRY POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• In a pot with a steamer insert, steam the potatoes until tender, about 15 minutes. (The potatoes can also be cooked in boiling salted water for the same amount of time.) Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
• In a pot of boiling water, blanch the leeks for 30 seconds, or until tender. Rinse in cold water and drain. Set aside.
• Cut the roasted peppers in 1/2 crosswise and then cut them into 1/2-inch slices.
• Cut each potato into 8 pieces. In a medium bowl, mix the potatoes, leeks, peppers, thyme, and tarragon. In a separate bowl, stir together the Champagne vinaigrette with the mustard. Drizzle the vinaigrette on the potato salad and toss gently until the vinaigrette coats the salad evenly. Season with the salt and pepper and toss again.
• In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar and salt together until the salt dissolves. Slowly whisk in the oil until the dressing is well blended. Season with pepper, to taste.
