Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 3–4 lb waxy baby gold potatoes
  • water
  • salt
  • thyme
  • 1 sprig rosemary
  • 4–5 cloves garlic cloves
Put the potatoes in a pot with just enough water to cover, plus a lot of salt, thyme, rosemary, garlic cloves and lemon peel.
Gently cooking baby gold potatoes
  • lemon peel
Bring to a boil, turn the heat to low and cook slowly about 25 minutes; do not hard boil them.
Test with a cake tester: it should pass with little resistance but the potato should still have texture, on the slightly undercooked side.
Put them on a plate and chill in the fridge 30 to 60 minutes to set the starch.
Chilling and crushing into planks
Crush each potato flat into a plank with the palm of the hand.
  • ¼ cup olive oil
Fry in a lot of olive oil over medium high about five minutes.
Shimmy the pan to flip them, fry about two minutes more.
Roast in a 450F oven 10 to 15 minutes to dry them out and set the crispiness.
