Jamie Oliver Lyonnaise Potatoes Recipes

LYONNAISE POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F.
• Peel the potatoes and cut them in half lengthwise. Then, cut each potato half into slices about a 1/4" thick.
• Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and add water to cover. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. As soon as a boil has been reached, boil for 5-6, until they are al dente. Drain well and set aside until ready to use.
• Add the butter to a large, oven-safe skillet (cast iron is best) over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring every so often until softened. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more.
• Turn off the heat and transfer the onions and garlic to a bowl off to the side.
• Transfer half of the potatoes to the pan and sprinkle 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper over the top of them.
• Scatter the onions and garlic across the potatoes. Then, top with a layer of the remaining potatoes, another 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Drizzle olive oil over the top and transfer to the oven.
• Bake for 40 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley, serve warm and enjoy.

LYONNAISE POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Peel potatoes and cut into 1/2 inch slices. Place sliced potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Allow to boil 2 minutes, then drain and set aside.
• Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in olive oil, then add onions. Saute until lightly caramelized, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in garlic and saute until onions are deep brown and garlic is soft. Transfer mixture to a bowl.
• Place skillet back on stove over low heat. Melt butter, then cover bottom of pan with 1/3 of potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Cover potatoes with 1/2 of onion mixture. Cover with 1/2 of remaining potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Spread with the rest of onion mixture. Cover with remaining potatoes, and season with more salt and pepper.
• Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and browned on top. Remove from oven and use a spatula to carefully transfer potatoes to a serving platter. Sprinkle with chopped parsley just before serving.

OVEN-ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• When roasting a joint such as a leg of lamb, place the meat directly on the oven rack in a preheated 425 degree oven. Place a wide roasting pan on the rack beneath the joint to catch all the fat and drippings.
• Peel the potatoes and place them, whole, in a large saucepan. Cover with cold water and bring to a boil. Simmer for about 5 minutes, then drain. Shake the potatoes roughly in the colander to bruise their sides.
• After the roast has been in the oven at least 20 minutes so that fat and drippings have started to collect in the pan, dump the parboiled potatoes into the drippings. Strip the leaves off one or two sprigs of fresh rosemary and toss them over the potatoes along with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Shake the pan well to coat the potatoes in fat and drippings. Continue to cook, occasionally turning the lamb and shaking the potatoes, for at least another hour and up to about 90 minutes, until the roast is cooked and the potatoes are crisply golden-brown outside and tender inside.

BROKEN POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cook the potatoes in salted boiling water for about 15 minutes, or until your knife slides easily through them. Drain and leave for 5 minutes.
• Drizzle a roasting tray with a little olive oil and any handy pork fat. Season, then throw in the potatoes, and push down on each of them to break them up slightly. Then pound up the rosemary in a pestle and mortar to bruise and release its flavors. Add 4 good lugs of olive oil, stir around, and drizzle over the potatoes. Roast for 40 to 50 minutes at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C/gas 7) until crisp and golden.
