This recipe for yellow potatoes turns out delicious and crusty. The secret step is boiling the potatoes in a salted, seasoned liquid. As a result, they absorb flavor and salt and, more importantly,?cook on the surface, forming a great, crunchy texture in the oven.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds new yellow potatoes, halved
- 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 3 cloves garlic, whole, peeled, bruised
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper
- 1 pinch kosher salt
Directions
Step 1
Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water by 1 inch. Bruise rosemary with the dull side of a knife blade; add to potatoes in the pot. Add salt, garlic, and bay leaves; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Drain and allow potatoes to air dry.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 3
When potatoes are thoroughly dry, return them to the pot. Drizzle with olive oil and season with cayenne pepper and kosher salt; stir to coat well. Transfer potatoes to a rimmed sheet pan.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are golden brown and crusty and flesh is creamy and soft, 35 to 45 minutes.
Tips
Cook time may vary depending on the size of the potatoes.
