Crushed Potatoes With Oyster Bar Butter Recipes

Steps:

• Cut the potatoes into cubes but keep the skin on. Cook in a pan of simmering salted water until just tender, about 10-15 minutes, and then drain. Add back to the pan with the parsley and some seasoning and crush lightly with a masher or the back of a fork.
• Add a splash of white wine vinegar and a slug of olive oil and gently mix in. Add more of each if it needs it.

Steps:

• Cook potatoes in a large pot of boiling, salted water until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain. (This step can be done ahead of time; keep potatoes covered and warm on the stovetop.)
• Meanwhile, in a medium pot over medium heat, gently simmer the cream and the garlic until garlic is completely tender and cream is reduced by about a third (it will look slightly thicker, about the consistency of melted ice cream), 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and lots of pepper. Add butter and swirl to melt. (This can also be done ahead; rewarm before proceeding.)
• Using your hands or something like a small dish or bowl, crush the potatoes and place in a large bowl. Pour cream mixture over the potatoes, and season with salt and more pepper. Toss to coat, encouraging the potatoes to break down slightly but remain textured and chunky.
• Stir in sour cream, half the chives and half the dill. Transfer to a large serving bowl and top with remaining chives and dill, and more black pepper and sour cream, if you like.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Place potatoes in a large pot, and fill pot with enough hot water to cover potatoes.
• Bring to a boil over high heat. Add salt and boil for 15-20 minutes or until potatoes are fork-tender.
• Once tender, drain water from potatoes. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Place butter in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish and place in oven for 1 minute or until butter is melted. Remove from oven and stir in pepper, garlic powder and onion powder.
• Using the curved back side of a fork and a cutting board, gently press potatoes to "crush" them. The "crushed" potatoes should break open but not apart too much.
• Gently dredge both sides of each crushed potato in butter mixture in pan and arrange in one layer.
• Roast for 15-20 minutes or until crisp and golden brown.

Steps:

• Mix butter, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and 1 Tbsp. oil in a large bowl with a rubber spatula until smooth. Gently mix in parsley, chives, dill, and tarragon; season with salt and pepper.
• Place potatoes and bay leaf in a large pot and pour in cold water to cover by 2"; season generously with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, 15-20 minutes. Drain, discard bay leaf, and let potatoes cool slightly. Using the flat side of a chef's knife or the heel of your hand, smash potatoes lightly to flatten.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add half of potatoes and cook in a single layer, turning once, until brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer potatoes to bowl with herb butter. Wipe out skillet, repeat process with remaining 2 Tbsp. oil and remaining potatoes. Toss potatoes in butter until they are all well coated (the warm potatoes should melt the butter).
• Do Ahead
• Herb butter can be made 2 days ahead; cover and chill. Potatoes can be boiled and smashed 1 day ahead; let cool, then cover and chill. Pat dry before frying.

Steps:

• Cook potatoes in boiling water in large saucepan 20 to 25 min. or until tender; drain.
• Add garlic, butter and pepper; mash roughly so that potatoes remain in large pieces.
• Sprinkle with cheese before serving.

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and quarter.
• In a saucepan cover potatoes with cold salted water by 1 inch and simmer 15 minutes, or until just tender.
• Drain potatoes in a colander and let stand 5 minutes.
• Finely chop white and light green parts of scallions. Finely chop parsley.
• In saucepan heat oil and chopped scallions over moderate heat until oil begins to sizzle and add potatoes.
• With a fork lightly crush potatoes into scallion oil (do not mash completely). Season potatoes with salt and pepper and stir in parsley.
