Coriander Scented Baby Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Throw the potatoes in a large pot, cover with room temperature water, and season with salt. Set on a high flame and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until a fork inserted into the potatoes draws out without resistance, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool. Once they're cool enough to handle, cut each potato into bite-size pieces.
• In a large skillet or wok, warm the oil until it's shimmering but not smoking. Add the fennel seeds; they should sizzle upon contact with the oil. Immediately add the potatoes, coriander, turmeric, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir-fry until the potatoes get crispy and golden brown on the outside. Finish with the fresh cilantro and lime juice and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the potatoes into a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk the herbs, garlic, and oil together until blended, and then pour over the potatoes. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Transfer the potatoes to a heavy large baking dish, spacing them evenly apart.
• Roast the potatoes until they are tender and golden, turning them occasionally with tongs, about 1 hour. Transfer the roasted potatoes to a decorative platter and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and herbes de Provence, if desired. Serve hot or warm.

Steps:

• Bring a pot of well-salted water to boil. Add the new potatoes with their skins on and cook them until they are fork-tender. Drain and let them cool in the colander for a few minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 425° F. As the oven heats, place a large, rimmed, baking sheet or jelly roll pan in middle rack in the oven.
• In a small skillet over medium heat, toast the coriander seeds, shaking the skillet until the seeds are fragrant and slightly darker, about 3-5 minutes. Once cooled, transfer the coriander seeds to a re-sealable plastic bag and, using a mallet or a rolling pin, crush them until they are coarse, but not pulverized.
• Place the potatoes on a clean surface and, using a sturdy fork, a mallet, or, a potato masher, gently press each potato until it cracks, but is still relatively whole. Transfer the potatoes to a bowl and toss well to coat with the coriander seeds, the olive oil, the seasoning, and the lemon juice (if using).
• Place the potatoes on the hot baking sheet you earlier put in the oven and roast them for about 25 minutes, or, until they are crispy and golden brown. There is no need to flip them over.
• Serve the potatoes hot with an extra sprinkle of coarse sea salt.

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes until they are nearly fork tender, about 10 to 15 minutes; drain, then cut in half once they are cool enough to touch.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; once the oil begins to shimmer add the cumin and coriander seeds and cook until they begin to sizzle, 30 seconds.
• Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds; stir in the potatoes and let brown a minute or two.
• Stir in the bell peppers, turmeric, cayenne (if using), and salt; cook 2 minutes and stir to distribute the spices; cover the skillet and cook 5 minutes (to steam the peppers a bit).
• Uncover and remove the pan from the heat; squeeze the lemon juice and toss.
• Garnish with peanuts and cilantro.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix potatoes and oil in large bowl. Season generously with salt and pepper. Transfer to large baking sheet. Bake until tender and brown, turning after 30 minutes, about 45 minutes. Transfer to large bowl. Mix in coriander and cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• Parboil potatoes (partially cook by boiling them briefly in water), cool and quarter.
• Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat.
• Add potatoes and saute until lightly golden.
• Add garlic and spices and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Add cilantro and serve.
