DANISH CARAMEL POTATOES

Sticky, sweet and such a treat, these potatoes, inspired by a classic sweet-and-savory Danish dish, are a must try. True to their title, the potatoes are actually tossed with a homemade caramel sauce-don't worry, it's just sugar and butter. A clever technique developed by the Betty Crocker Kitchens makes quick work of a tricky step. Where most traditional recipes call for combining the potatoes with hot caramel on your stovetop, where it's easy to burn the caramel and make a mess, this version calls for combining them in the oven. So you'll end up with creamy potatoes coated in rich caramel, with barely any fuss. We highly recommend serving these alongside pork and cabbage, as the Danes traditionally do at Christmastime.

Categories     Herb     Potato     Side     Quick & Easy     Low/No Sugar     Gourmet

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 1/2 pounds small red potatoes (about twenty-four, 1 1/2-inches in diameter)
1 tablespoon caraway seeds
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Peel potatoes and in a 3- to 4-quart saucepan cover with salted cold water by 2 inches. Simmer potatoes until just tender, 12 to 15 minutes, and drain in a colander.
  • While potatoes are cooking, in a small heavy skillet dry-roast seeds over moderate heat, shaking skillet, until fragrant and slightly darker, being careful not to burn them, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer seeds to a small bowl and cool. With mortar and pestle or in an electric coffee/spice grinder grind seeds coarse.
  • In a heavy skillet melt butter over moderately low heat and add potatoes, stirring and shaking skillet to coat. Sprinkle potatoes with ground seeds, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste and stir, shaking skillet occasionally, to coat.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For this recipe, it's best to use small, waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss. These potatoes hold their shape well and won't fall apart when cooked.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the potatoes, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and becoming crispy.
  • Season the potatoes well: Be generous with the salt and pepper when seasoning the potatoes. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Use fresh herbs: If you have fresh herbs on hand, such as parsley, dill, or thyme, add them to the potatoes towards the end of cooking. This will add a pop of freshness and flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Danish caraway potatoes are best served immediately after they are cooked. This is when they are at their crispiest and most flavorful.

Conclusion:

Danish caraway potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are crispy, flavorful, and packed with caraway seeds. Whether you are serving them at a casual weeknight dinner or a special holiday gathering, these potatoes are sure to be a hit.
