Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

Roasted Potatoes With Olives


potatoes

4 lb yukon gold -- finnish or
1 red
1 rose, peeled and cut into
1 inch chunks
1 tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon kosher
1 salt
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup picholine olives
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1 freshly ground pepper

Preheat the oven to 400-degrees. In a large saucepan, cover the potatoes with 2 quarts of water. Add 1 tablespoon of the salt and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are almost tender, about 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them dry in their own steam for 10 minutes. Transfer the potatoes to a rimmed baking sheet and gently toss them with the olive oil. Roast the potatoes in the oven for about 1 hour, turning them every so often with a flat spatula, until golden brown. Pour off any excess oil in the pan. Scatter the olives and garlic over the potatoes and toss. Lower the oven temperature to 350-degrees and bake the potatoes for 10 minutes longer. Sprinkle them with the remaining salt and a little fresh pepper and serve piping hot. Recipe By : Food and Wine April 1996 From: Grumpy49@nexusprime.Org On Tue, J
