Best 4 Best Ever Roast Potatoes Recipes

BEST EVER POT ROAST WITH BOURSIN MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• 1. Take out your meat; let your meat come up to room temp. LIBERALLY season with sea salt and fresh black pepper.
• 2. Pour some olive oil into a pan. Heat on med-high until almost smoking. Put your onion quarters in and brown on all sides (you want a nice deep golden color). When browned, remove and put in bottom of Crock Pot.
• 3. Next add a little more oil if needed and put your carrots into the pan making sure everything gets a nice color as well. Remove when evenly browned and add to Crock Pot.
• 4. Add the last of your oil and let it heat up. While your oil heats, dredge your beef through your flour making sure it's evenly coated.
• 5. Sear the meat on all sides, about a minute or two, getting a GBD (Golden Brown and Delicious) color.
• 6. Pull out your meat and lay it on top of your onions and carrots.
• 7. Add your rosemary, thyme, and bay leaves to the Crock Pot.
• 8. Mix your pot roast packet into your 2 cups of stock and stir until well combined then add to your Crock Pot. (The liquid should come up about halfway on the meat.)
• 9. If there is a lot of oil left in your pan, dump some of it out. Add your red wine to deglaze the pan, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wisk for all those little cooked on yummy bits (that's where a lot of your flavor will come from). Reduce it by about half, then add it to you Crock Pot.
• 10. Set your Crock Pot on high and cook for 4 hours or on low for 8 hours. You can leave it on low and it will keep going or, after 4 hours on high I usually turn it down and let it go another hour.
• 11. Boursin Mashed Potatoes! In the last 45 min of cooking get a big pot of SALTY water boiling. Wash all of your potatoes well. Stab all over with a fork. DO NOT PEEL.
• 12. Add potatoes to boiling water and cook until tender (falling off the fork when stabbed).
• 13. Strain the potatoes really well.
• 14. Put the milk and butter in the microwave and heat until milk is hot and butter is melted.
• 15. Add the potatoes back to the pot and get out your electric mixer. Mix until most of the really big pieces are broken down.
• 16. Add the milk/butter mixture a little bit at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
• 17. I like these specific potatoes a little lump because they really stand up to the pot roast.
• 18. Add 4 OZ of Boursin at the last minute and stir in while potatoes are hot. Season to taste.
• 19. Try to separate the pot roast into manage pieces, either take it out and cut it or just separate it in the Crock Pot.
• 20. It should be tender enough that it just falls apart to the touch.
• 21. I serve it up with a big scoop of potaotes in the center of the plates and put pot roast and veggies and gravy right on top. Garnish with some chopped green onion if you so desire. DEEEEEEEEEEELICIOUS =)

BEST EVER ROAST POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 190C/375F/Gas mark 5, or for convection cooking: 170C/350F.
• Peel potatoes and cut in half. Put in a pan of salted cold water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 7-8 minutes until almost cooked (they will still feel firm when pierced with a knife). Drain thoroughly using a colander, then shake the potatoes around a little in the colander until the outsides are roughened.
• Place in roasting pan, sprinkle with avocado oil, rosemary. Season with salt and pepper. Cook in oven at 190C/375F until golden crisp, about 45-60 minutes.

THE BEST ROAST POTATOES EVER

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to center position and preheat oven to 450°F/230°C (or 400°F/200°C if using convection). Heat 2 quarts (2L) water in a large pot over high heat until boiling. Add 2 tablespoons kosher salt (about 1 ounce; 25g), baking soda, and potatoes and stir. Return to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until a knife meets little resistance when inserted into a potato chunk, about 10 minutes after returning to a boil.
• Meanwhile, combine olive oil, duck fat, or beef fat with rosemary, garlic, and a few grinds of black pepper in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat. Cook, stirring and shaking pan constantly, until garlic just begins to turn golden, about 3 minutes. Immediately strain oil through a fine-mesh strainer set in a large bowl. Set garlic/rosemary mixture aside and reserve separately.
• When potatoes are cooked, drain carefully and let them rest in the pot for about 30 seconds to allow excess moisture to evaporate. Transfer to bowl with infused oil, season to taste with a little more salt and pepper, and toss to coat, shaking bowl roughly, until a thick layer of mashed potato-like paste has built up on the potato chunks.
• Transfer potatoes to a large rimmed baking sheet and separate them, spreading them out evenly. Transfer to oven and roast, without moving, for 20 minutes. Using a thin, flexible metal spatula to release any stuck potatoes, shake pan and turn potatoes. Continue roasting until potatoes are deep brown and crisp all over, turning and shaking them a few times during cooking, 30 to 40 minutes longer.
• Transfer potatoes to a large bowl and add garlic/rosemary mixture and minced parsley. Toss to coat and season with more salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
