Categories     side-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

Kosher salt
3 pounds large Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and 1 1/2- to 2-inch diced
1/2 cup vegetable oil
Coarse sea salt or fleur de sel

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of kosher salt to a large pot of boiling water. Add the potatoes, bring back to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the potatoes, place them back in the pot with the lid on, and shake the pot roughly for about 5 seconds. Carefully spoon the potatoes onto a baking rack set over a sheet pan in one layer. Set the potatoes aside to cool and dry for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Pour the oil into a large roasting pan, tilt the pan to distribute the oil, and place in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes, until the oil is smoking hot. Transfer the potatoes carefully into the oil, toss them lightly to coat each potato with the hot oil, and spread in one layer. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Roast for 45 minutes to 1 hour, turning the potatoes occasionally with tongs, until very browned and crisp on the outside and tender and creamy inside.
  • Transfer to a serving platter, sprinkle with 1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons sea salt and serve hot.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh, high-quality potatoes. Avoid potatoes that are bruised or have blemishes.
  • Soaking the potatoes in cold water before frying helps to remove excess starch, resulting in crispier potatoes.
  • Be sure to dry the potatoes thoroughly before frying. This will help prevent splattering and ensure that the potatoes cook evenly.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pan for frying the potatoes. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the potatoes from burning.
  • Fry the potatoes in small batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. This will help ensure that the potatoes cook evenly.
  • Season the potatoes with salt and pepper, or other desired seasonings, before frying. This will help to enhance the flavor of the potatoes.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately after frying. This will ensure that they are at their crispiest.
