Categories     Side dish

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2kg Maris Piper potatoes
1 garlic bulb, cut in half lengthways
100ml rapeseed or sunflower oil
8-10 fresh bay leaves
½ tsp lemon , zested

Steps:

  • Peel and halve or quarter the potatoes, if large, so they're all the same size. Put in a large pan and cover with cold water and a pinch of salt. Add one half of the garlic bulb. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 mins until a knife goes easily through the potatoes, then drain well, reserving the garlic. Leave the potatoes to steam-dry in the pan for 10 mins. Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7.
  • Pour the oil into a large baking tray or two smaller ones - it should cover the base of the tray, so add a little more if you need to. Heat in the oven for 10 mins until really hot. Carefully transfer the spuds to the oil, leaving lots of room between each one (otherwise they will steam, rather than roast) and coat in the oil, taking care not to splash yourself. Season, then add both halves of the garlic, blanched and not, and nestle the bay leaves underneath the spuds.
  • Roast for 40-45 mins, turning halfway through and coating in more oil, until golden and crunchy. Season with more salt and pepper, and zest the lemon directly over the potatoes so the essential oils spritz over the spuds. Serve with the roasted garlic in its shell.

"SPECIAL" ROASTED POTATOES



The secret to these deliciously crusty potatoes is the pre-oven boiling in a salted and seasoned liquid. The potatoes not only absorb flavor and salt, but more importantly the surface of the potato cooks, which is what forms the great crunchy texture in the oven.

PRIME RIB AND OVEN-ROASTED POTATOES WITH BAY LEAVES AND SAGE



Prime Rib and Oven-Roasted Potatoes with Bay Leaves and Sage image

A proper Victorian Christmas dinner always had a roast at its center, and this recipe for prime rib carries on the tradition nicely. Featuring a burnished crust and a rosy interior, friends and family will love this crowd pleasing main.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

15 dried bay leaves, crumbled, plus whole leaves for garnish
1/3 cup coarsely chopped fresh sage leaves, plus whole leaves for garnish
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup finely grated orange zest (from 3 oranges)
1 three-rib prime rib of beef (about 7 pounds), trimmed and frenched
3 pounds russet potatoes, preferably small, peeled and halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Stir together bay leaves, sage, oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and orange zest in a small bowl. Season with pepper. Rub herb mixture all over roast. Refrigerate roast, covered, at least 8 hours and up to 1 day.
  • Submerge potatoes in a large pot of water. Bring to a boil; season with salt. Cook 5 minutes. Drain. Score lines lengthwise in potatoes with the tines of a fork.
  • Preheat oven to 450°. Transfer roast, fat-side up, to a roasting pan; let come to room temperature, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Roast 15 minutes. Add potatoes; roast 15 minutes more. Reduce temperature to 350° and continue roasting, turning potatoes after 30 minutes, until a thermometer inserted into thickest part of meat (not touching bone) registers 115° for rare, about 1 hour. Let stand 20 minutes (temperature should rise to 125°), then slice. Garnish with bay leaves and sage; serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, use a firm, waxy potato like Yukon Gold or Red Potatoes. These potatoes will hold their shape well during roasting and won't become too soft.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Aim for pieces that are about 1-inch thick.
  • Toss the potatoes with oil and seasonings: This will help them crisp up and develop flavor. Use a good quality olive oil and your favorite herbs and spices. Some good options include rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, and paprika.
  • Roast the potatoes in a hot oven: This will help them get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure there is enough space between the potatoes so that they can roast evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the potatoes will steam instead of roast.
  • Roast the potatoes until they are tender: This will usually take about 20-30 minutes, but the exact time will depend on the size of the potatoes and how hot your oven is. To test if the potatoes are done, pierce them with a fork. They should be tender all the way through.

Conclusion:

Roasted potatoes with bay leaves are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion meal. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and satisfying. So next time you are looking for a side dish that is sure to please everyone, give these roasted potatoes with bay leaves a try.
