Grilled Smashed Potatoes Food

PERFECT SMASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Put 1 3/4 pounds baby potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Add 2 bay leaves, 2 garlic cloves and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain, discarding the bay leaves and garlic. Toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, transfer to a baking sheet and smash with a spatula or measuring cup. Drizzle with more olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil, turning, until crisp and golden, 15 to 20 minutes.

SKEWERED GRILLED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place potatoes and water in a microwave safe bowl. Cook potatoes in microwave on high until just tender, about 15 minutes, stirring half-way through. Drain potatoes and allow to steam for a few minutes to dry.
• In a large bowl, stir together mayonnaise, wine, rosemary, and garlic powder. Mix in drained potatoes and toss to coat. Marinate, covered, in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.
• Remove potatoes from marinade, and skewer. Grill, covered, for 6 to 8 minutes, brushing occasionally with marinade, turning half-way through. Remove potatoes from skewers and serve hot.

CRISP SMASHED POTATOES WITH FRIED ONIONS AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Bring 2 inches of salted water to a boil in a large heavy-bottomed pot fitted with a steamer basket. Add potatoes and season with salt. Cover and steam until the potatoes are totally tender, 8 to 10 minutes. (Check one of the smaller ones after 8 minutes to see how tender it is; you should be able to insert a fork into it easily.) If you don't have a steamer basket, boil them in a large pot of salted water until tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove the potatoes from the steamer and let them cool slightly. Using the bottom of a bowl or cup or the palm of your hand, smash the potatoes until they're just crushed to expose the inside, but not so much that they fall apart. You're going for maximum crispy surface area here.
• Heat the chicken fat (or olive oil or peanut oil) in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add potatoes in a single layer (work in batches, if you need to) and season with kosher salt and black pepper. Cook until both sides are very browned and very crispy, about 5 minutes per side.
• Remove potatoes with a slotted spoon or spatula and transfer to a serving bowl or platter. Add the butter to skillet and let it melt and foam. Add the onion rings in a single layer and season with kosher salt and black pepper. Cook, swirling skillet occasionally until the onions have turned golden brown and started to crisp, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and add Aleppo pepper or red pepper flakes, swirling the skillet a few times to combine. Pour the onions and any butter in the skillet over the potatoes and top with flaky sea salt and parsley.

GRILLED SMASHED POTATOES WITH TOASTED CUMIN VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Put the cumin in a small skillet over low heat and toast, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not dark, 2 minutes. Remove to a bowl, add the olive oil, vinegar and salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Let sit at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld.
• Put the potatoes in a pot, cover with cold water, add 1 tablespoon of salt, bring to a boil and cook until a paring knife inserted meets with some resistance, about 8 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl.
• Heat a charcoal or gas grill to high.
• Using a potato masher, smash the potatoes, leaving them very chunky, and toss with the canola oil and some salt and pepper. Put the potatoes in a grill basket and grill, covered, tossing occasionally, until slightly charred and crisp in spots, about 6 minutes. Remove to a bowl and toss with the vinaigrette. Taste, season as necessary and toss again with the chopped parsley.
