Potatoes Alla Girarrosto Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Place the potatoes in a single layer in a 13-x-9-inch baking dish and pour the oil over them. Add the garlic, dried oregano, salt and pepper to taste and toss well to coat with the oil.
• Bake the potatoes for 15 minutes. Add the stock, toss and bake for 10 minutes more. Add the lemon juice, toss and bake for 10 to 15 minutes more, or until the potatoes are cooked through. If you like, preheat the broiler and broil the potatoes for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Sprinkle with the fresh oregano and serve at once.
• Variation:
• Dissolve 1 tablespoon tomato paste in the stock, and reduce the amount of lemon juice to taste. Substitute Aleppo pepper or crushed red pepper flakes for the black pepper.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a medium casserole dish.
• Layer 1/2 of the potatoes into bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Top with the onion slices, and add the remaining potatoes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• In a medium-size saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Mix in the flour and salt, and stir constantly with a whisk for one minute. Stir in milk. Cook until mixture has thickened. Stir in cheese all at once, and continue stirring until melted, about 30 to 60 seconds. Pour cheese over the potatoes, and cover the dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake 1 1/2 hours in the preheated oven.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (If you're lucky enough to have a convection oven, it will cook the potatoes faster and crisper.).
• Prick the potatoes all over with a fork or the tip of a small knife. Line a baking tray with foil (to make clean up easier) and place potatoes on sheet. Bake on middle rack of preheated oven until a fork goes in easily, about 1 hour. Remove potatoes to counter and let rest until cool enough to handle. Cut roughly into large chunks.
• Pour olive oil into the bottom of a large roasting pan which is also stovetop safe. Spread onions evenly across the bottom of the pan, then spread potato chunks evenly atop the onions. Bake, uncovered, on the middle rack, tossing every 5 minutes, until onions begin to soften and brown, about 15 minutes.
• Place pan over a burner on high heat for 2 minutes, shaking every 30 seconds, to get a good caramelization going on the onions and potatoes.
• Return the pan to the oven for 10 minutes, shaking/stirring after 5 minutes. If any bits of potato brown to the point that they stick to the pan, scrape 'em off and stir 'em inches.
• Remove pan from the oven (which you may now turn off). Place over a burner set at medium-high. Add garlic, butter, red pepper flakes, rosemary, and thyme; season well with pepper and salt. Cook a few minutes until the herbs wilt and the flavors meld. Off heat, sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

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:

• In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, garlic, oregano, salt , and pepper. Set aside.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes, and cook until almost done, about 10 minutes. Don't overcook otherwise the potatoes will break apart. Drain, and cool.
• Preheat oven broiler. Line a baking tray with aluminum foil, and lightly grease the aluminum foil.
• Arrange potatoes in the prepared baking tray. Spoon the mayonnaise mixture over the potatoes. Broil in the preheated oven until potatoes are tender and mayonnaise mixture is lightly browned, about 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. In large roasting pan, combine potatoes, garlic, oregano and oil. Stir until potatoes are well-coated, and spread them evenly in pan.
• Place in oven, and roast until golden brown and crispy, 40 minutes to an hour. (If the potatoes are crowded in the pan, they will take longer to crisp.)
• Remove potatoes and garlic from oven, and transfer to serving dish. Sprinkle with salt to taste, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Poke each potato with the tines of a fork. Place the potatoes in a microwave oven, and cook on high power for about 5 minutes. Check about halfway through, and turn potatoes over for even cooking. Slice each potato in half the long way and cook potatoes another 2 minutes on high power.
• Preheat a grill for medium heat.
• Brush the potato tops with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Cook on prepared grill for 15 to 20 minutes, turning once.
