HOW TO JULIENNE POTATOES

Steps:

• The most common reason to Julienne a potato is for French Fries, (for which I've got a really great French Fry recipe here). Whether you bake, fry, sauté them...you still need to cut them. And besides potatoes, knowing how to do the Julienne cut is a critical knife skill for any home cook. The process is pretty simple, if you know the technique. Too often people are either intimidated, or just plain inexperienced using a knife, and that can cause you to move slowly, or even worse, move unsafely. Check out the video, and the steps below, and I hope you find this technique useful. How to Julienne a Potato One of the first principles to know is that it's easier to cut potatoes (or anything really) once they have a flat side Since they are round, our first cut makes a flat side; then we go from there Decide how thick/thin you'd like your potatoes and each cut should be made at that same thickness Hold the potato, and slice off one side, making a "plank", down the long side of the potato Rotate the potato so the flat side is now on the cutting board, and it's more stable Now continue to make planks moving along the potato until complete Lay the planks flat on the cutting board, and slice through them, again with the same width cut Once you're through your planks, you've got your Julienned potatoes. If needed, you can shorten the sticks by slicing them in half

• Bake in preheated oven until cheese melts and cream bubbles, about 20 minutes.

JULIENNED POTATOES LYONNAISE

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and drop into cold water to prevent discoloration. Using shredding disk of food processor or hand grater, grate potatoes as finely as possible. There should be about six cups. Drop grated potatoes into basin of cold water and set aside.
• Cut the onion in half lengthwise. Cut each half crosswise into very thin slices. There should be about one cup.
• Heat oil in nonstick 10-inch or 11-inch skillet. When oil is hot, drain potatoes, pat dry and add them to skillet. Add salt and pepper. Cook over high heat, shaking skillet and stirring, so potatoes cook evenly, about 10 minutes. Add butter. Toss and stir. Continue cooking about 2 minutes. Add onions. Toss and stir to blend thoroughly. Continue cooking, tossing and stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes.
• Using back of wooden spoon, press potato mixture to flatten well. Cook over moderately high heat about 2 minutes or until browned on bottom.
• Invert a round plate slightly larger than circumference of the skillet on top of skillet. Quickly turn skillet over so potatoes fall into the plate. Slip potatoes browned side up, back into skillet. Press down with back of wooden spoon.
• Cook on second side until nicely browned, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately.

CHEESY POTATOES

• In large bowl, mix Potatoes, Sauce Mix (from both potato mixes) and boiling water. Stir in sour cream, milk, margarine, bell pepper and 1/4 cup of the onions. Pour into baking dish.
• Bake uncovered 35 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining onions and the cheese. Bake 5 to 10 minutes longer or until bubbly around edges and potatoes are tender. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

MATCHSTICK POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and cut lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick julienne in processor or with mandoline. Transfer as cut to a bowl of ice and cold water and let chill in water at least 30 minutes.
• Heat 1 1/4 inches oil in a 6- to 7-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat until thermometer registers 375°F.
• While oil heats, drain potatoes and pat completely dry between several layers of paper towels. Fry potatoes in 6 batches, gently stirring once or twice with a slotted spoon or skimmer, until golden and crisp, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per batch. Transfer potatoes with slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and season with salt. (Return oil to 375°F between batches.)
