Ghost Fried Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Combine the potatoes, garlic, bay leaves and peppercorns in a large pot. Add 2 tablespoons salt and enough water to cover the potatoes by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove the potatoes to a paper towel?lined plate with a slotted spoon; gently blot dry (it?s OK if some of the potatoes crumble). Let cool completely.
• Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Melt the schmaltz in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat (you should have about 2 inches in the pot) and heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Working in batches, fry the potatoes until browned and crisp, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove to the rack with a slotted spoon and immediately sprinkle with salt. Keep warm in the oven between batches.
• Add the parsley and sage leaves to the hot schmaltz and fry a few seconds until just crisp. Remove to a paper towel?lined plate with a slotted spoon and sprinkle with salt. Top the potatoes with the fried herbs.

Steps:

• Peel and quarter potatoes, then cover with water in a 4-quart pot and season well with salt. Simmer, partially covered, until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• While potatoes are simmering, heat butter and milk in a small saucepan until butter is melted. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
• Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in middle.
• Drain potatoes and force through ricer into a large bowl (or mixer bowl if using stand mixer). Beat in milk mixture, yolks, and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper with an electric mixer at low speed until combined.
• Spread about one-third of potatoes in a buttered 1 1/2-quart shallow ovenproof dish. Transfer remaining potatoes to pastry bag. Pipe potatoes close together into 2 1/2- to 3-inch-high pointed mounds to form "'ghosts" and garnish each mound with 2 seeds for "eyes."
• Bake until tips of ghosts are golden and potatoes are firm, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Wash and cut the potatoes as desired (I usually cut lengthwise making round slices around 1/8 inch thick). Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large skillet and just before putting the tomatoes in put one ghost chili in the oil (handle the pepper very carefully and wash your hands after touching it). Cook the potatoes in the oil turning once and when golden brown (4-8 minutes) place them on a plate covered with paper towels to soak up the oil and discard the ghost chili. Sprinkle with salt and pepper if desired and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cut potatoes lengthwise into four wedges. Place Skin side down in a baking pan. Combine remaining ingredients into a bowl and brush onto potatoes.
• Bake at 375 for 1 hour, brushing with oil and cheese mixer every 15 minutes.
• Turn potatoes over for the last 15 minutes of baking.

Steps:

• Place the frying pan on the stove on medium heat. Add 3 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil and to this, add the 2 diced potatoes.
• Stir in seasoning mix until potatoes are well-coated. Cover the pan with lid and let sit for 5 minutes. Uncover pan and stir briefly
• Now, cover the pan with lid again and let sit for another 5 minutes. Then, uncover the pan and garnish with 1 tbsp chopped spinach.
• Serve warm.
