Golden Crunch Potatoes Recipes

GOLDEN CRUNCH POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Peel the potatoes and cut into large chunks or, if they are small enough, keep them whole. Place in a pan of salted water, add most of the turmeric, stir and bring to the boil. Turn down the heat and simmer the potatoes for 6 mins until the sides are fluffy. Drain well and leave to cool slightly. Mix the flour, polenta, paprika and remaining turmeric together in a large bowl, then toss through the potatoes until evenly coated in the flour mix.
• Put the oil and fat in a large roasting tin - you want a layer of fat about 5mm deep, and put in the oven for 10 mins until shimmering hot. Carefully tip the potatoes into the hot fat and use a fish slice to turn them until evenly coated. Place in the oven and leave for 40 mins. Remove, turn the potatoes and return to the oven for another 20 mins until golden. Serve sprinkled with the salt.

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.

GOLDEN CRUSHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Steam the potatoes, whole, for 20 minutes, until they are still firm yet easily pierced with a fork. Drain.
• Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place a potato on the tray, cut a small cross about 1/4-inch deep into the potato and crush the potato with the back of a wooden spoon to flatten into a patty about 1/2-inch thick. Try to crush it just enough so it stays together with most of its skin intact. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
• Brush the tops of the potatoes with the oil, sprinkle with salt and bake until crisp and golden, about 20 minutes.
