SALT-RUBBED SWEET POTATOES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVES



Salt-Rubbed Sweet Potatoes With Sour Cream and Chives image

If you've ever thought the somewhat-dull sweet potato could use some punch, try covering it in a layer of salt before you bake it: The salt flavors and tenderizes the skin, leaving a crisp exterior that begs for the cooling tang of sour cream. Leave the potatoes a little damp after you've scrubbed them clean so that you'll have an easier time getting the salt to stick.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h5m

Yield 80 fluid ounces, 7-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/4 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and diced into ½ inch squares
6 ounces unsalted butter
3/4 cup flour
1 (6 ounce) onions, chopped
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
7 cups water
1 bay leaf
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (more if desired)
1 1/2 tablespoons chicken bouillon powder
1 teaspoon Lawry's Seasoned Salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 cups whole milk
4 fluid ounces table cream
12 fluid ounces sour cream
crouton, if desired (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Cook the potatoes until they are tender; set aside.
  • Prepare roux: melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  • Gradually whisk in the flour until it is well combined.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring often, for about 3 to 5 minutes or until the mixture turns an almond colour and is very creamy; set aside.
  • To make the soup: in large kettle, sauté the onion in oil until it is soft.
  • Add the water, bay leaf, chives, chicken bouillon, seasoning salt, pepper and garlic powder; bring to a boil.
  • Whisk in the milk and table cream, then the prepared roux; cook, stirring frequently, until thickened.
  • Add the sour cream and potatoes.
  • Simmer until soup reaches 160°F.
  • Remove the bay leaf.
  • Remove from the heat and serve with croutons if desired.

Tips:

  • For a crispy crust, ensure the potatoes are completely dry before tossing them in the cornstarch.
  • Use a large skillet or pan to prevent overcrowding, which can lead to soggy potatoes.
  • Be patient and resist the urge to stir the potatoes too often. This will give them a chance to develop a nice crust.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sour cream, chives, or ketchup.
  • For a more flavorful dish, try using different types of potatoes, such as red potatoes or Yukon Golds.
  • Add some grated Parmesan cheese or crumbled bacon to the potatoes for an extra boost of flavor.
  • If you don't have cornstarch, you can use all-purpose flour instead.
  • For a healthier option, bake the potatoes instead of frying them.

Zesty Potatoes with Sour Cream and Chives is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for any occasion.
