POTATOES, OLIVES & ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes, bring back to a boil, and simmer over medium heat for 8-10 minutes or until tender. Remove the potatoes from the pan using a slotted spoon and set aside to cool slightly.
• Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle cut them into wedges with a sharp knife.
• Pit the mixed olives with a cherry pitter or small sharp knife and cut them in half.
• Using a sharp knife cut the anchovy fillets into thinner stripes
• Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet. Add the potato wedges and rosemary. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 7-8 minutes or until the potatoes are golden.

FRENCH POTATO SALAD WITH ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Cook potatoes in lightly salted water until done (ca 20 minutes). Cool slightly, but peel while still warm. Slice into 1 cm / 1/2 inch pieces.
• Mix wine, apple vinegar, olive oil and chopped green onions and heat in large skillet or wok at medium-low temperature. Add sliced potatoes and shake skillet, so that the liquid covers the potatoes or mix potatoes carefully to cover them. Season with salt and pepper. Turn the temperature up and cook until potatoes have absorbed most of the dressing.
• Slice the anchovies and mix with the chopped parsley and chives in a small boil. Add the reserved oil from the anchovies and stir. Mix carefully with the potatoes and remove them from the heat.
• Put on individual plates or in a bowl. Serve while still warm or at room temperature.

ROASTED POTATOES WITH ANCHOVIES & LEMON

Steps:

• Adjust the rack to the lower third and preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Toss the potatoes with the salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large, shallow pan (1-inch deep). Roast, without turning or stirring, until the underside are golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the anchovies, lemon juice, and remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
• Turn the potatoes over with a spatula and roast for 10 minutes more. Toss with the garlic and roast for 5 minutes more. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the anchovy mixture, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve hot.

MASHED POTATOES WITH ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Peel and cut the potatoes in 1/2-inch slices. Rinse under cold water and transfer to a large saucepan. Add cold water to cover the potatoes by an inch and add the salt. Set over medium-high heat, cover, and bring to a simmer. Remove the lid, lower the heat to medium, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender.
• While the potatoes cook, mash the anchovies, garlic, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil with a mortar and pestle, or with a bowl and fork. Combine the anchovy mixture with the cream and warm up for a few seconds in the microwave (or in a small saucepan over medium heat) until hot but not boiling.
• Drain the potatoes and return to the pan. Add the anchovy mixture and the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Set the pan over medium-low heat, and mash the potatoes with a fork or potato ricer, incorporating the other ingredients. Taste, adjust the seasoning, and keep warm until ready to serve.

ROASTED POTATOES WITH ANCHOVIES AND TUNA

Steps:

• In a medium pot, cover potatoes with at least 1 inch of water, and add a generous amount of salt. Bring to a simmer, then cook until potatoes are very soft, 25 to 30 minutes. You want to overcook them a little, so the insides stay creamy when they're roasted later.
• Drain the potatoes, and let them cool until you can handle them.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Use your hands to smash the potatoes to about 3/4-inch thick and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Toss with oil and a little salt. (The more generous you are with the oil, the crispier the potatoes will get.) Arrange potatoes in a single layer.
• Roast until dark golden and crisp, 40 to 50 minutes, flipping them over halfway through.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a small pot over medium heat. Stir in anchovies and capers, and continue to cook until butter is brown and nutty. Stir in garlic and remove pan from heat.
• Pour brown butter all over the potatoes. Add tuna (or beans) to the pan, and toss well. Season with more salt, if needed, pepper and lemon juice to taste. Scatter herbs and onions over the top and serve.

ROASTED POTATOES WITH ANCHOVIES AND LEMONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Toss potatoes with salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons oil in a large shallow baking pan (1 inch deep). Roast in lower third of oven, without turning or stirring, until undersides are golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• While potatoes are roasting, whisk together anchovies, lemon juice, and remaining tablespoon oil.
• Turn potatoes over and roast in lower third of oven 10 minutes more. Toss potatoes with garlic and roast 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and stir in anchovy mixture, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm.

POTATO SALAD WITH CAPERS AND ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook at a brisk simmer until the potatoes are firm but easily pierced with a skewer, about 20 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
• While the potatoes are cooking, make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, put the red onion, vinegar and a healthy pinch of salt. Stir together, then let sit for 10 minutes, so onion softens and pickles slightly. Add the garlic, anchovy, capers and mustard. Whisk in the olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, remove the skins with a paring knife. Carefully slice 1/4-inch thick, or slightly thicker. Put the slices in a wide, low bowl and season lightly with salt. Pour the vinaigrette over. Using your hands, gently coat the potato slices with the vinaigrette, taking care not to break them. Set aside at room temperature to let the salad absorb the dressing.
• Just before serving, add thyme leaves and parsley and gently toss the potato slices again. (Some of the vinaigrette will have settled to the bottom of the bowl.) Garnish with halved or quartered hard-cooked egg and arugula leaves, if using.

SUMMER SALAD WITH ANCHOVY DRESSING

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of water to the boil. Cook the beans for 4 mins, so they still have a slight crunch, then scoop out with a slotted spoon into a colander and cool quickly with cold water. Tip the potatoes into the pan, add the eggs and simmer everything for 8 mins. Lift out the eggs, then leave to cool while the potatoes cook for 2 more mins until tender. Drain the potatoes.
• For the dressing, mash the anchovies with the side of a knife, then mix with the vinegar and olive oil in a large bowl. Stir in the beans, potatoes, olives and tomatoes. Peel and halve the eggs. Put the leaves into a large serving bowl, add the potato mix and eggs, then serve.
