Garlic Thyme Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cut the potatoes in half or quarters and place in a bowl with the olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic; toss until the potatoes are well coated. Transfer the potatoes to a sheet pan and spread out into 1 layer. Roast in the oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until browned and crisp. Flip twice with a spatula during cooking in order to ensure even browning.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven, toss with parsley, season to taste, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Break the garlic bulb into cloves and place in a pan with the potatoes in their skins, then cover with cold salted water. Bring the potatoes to the boil, then simmer for 15 mins until you can put a knife through, but they still hold their shape. Drain in a colander and leave to cool.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel off the skins. Cut into quarters and mix in a large bowl with 2 tbsp of the olive oil and some seasoning. Toss with the semolina flour until well coated.
• Pour the remaining 3 tbsp olive oil into a shallow roasting tin and add the potatoes, garlic and thyme. Bake for 45 mins-1 hr until the potatoes are crisp and golden.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Slice the peeled potatoes as finely as possible on a mandolin, with the fine slicing blade of a food processor, or with a very sharp knife. (The more finely you slice them, the quicker and more evenly they will cook.)
• Pat the potatoes dry with a clean tea towel and tip into a large bowl. Pour over the melted butter, sprinkle over the thyme and some salt (preferably sea salt or rock salt), and toss until each slice is coated in butter.
• In a roasting tin, measuring about 20 x 20cm, assemble the potato slices vertically, tightly packed together like a deck of cards, until the dish is full and you've used all the potatoes. Sprinkle with a little more salt and place in the oven for 45-50 mins until crisp and cooked. Use a skewer or small sharp knife to check that the potatoes are completely soft and cooked in the centre. Serve from the tin alongside the lamb.

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large pot with 2 tablespoons salt and garlic. Add water to cover by 1 inch and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to medium and simmer until potatoes are tender and can be pierced easily with a fork, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Drain potatoes and garlic in a colander. Return to pot and cook over medium, stirring frequently, until pale, dry, and a film begins to form on bottom of pot, 2 to 3 minutes. Working in batches, press through a ricer into a large bowl, or mash directly in pot with a potato masher. Cover to keep warm.
• In a small saucepan, combine milk, butter, and thyme. Cook over medium until butter melts and milk is steaming. Discard thyme, then stir milk mixture into potatoes. Season with salt and pepper, top with a pat of butter and more pepper, and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. In a casserole dish, add the potatoes, peppercorns, garlic, lemon slices and thyme sprigs with 1 tsp flaky sea salt, then pour over the oil. Put the lid on and cook for 45 mins.
• Once the potatoes are cooked, remove from the oven and leave to stand for 20 mins or so. To serve, remove the potatoes and garlic cloves from the oil and scatter the thyme leaves on top.
