Lemon Scented Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• For the Meyer lemon vinaigrette: In a medium bowl, whisk together lemon juice and mustard until combined. Slowly add olive oil, whisking until emulsified. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in parsley and oregano; set aside.
• For the potatoes: Put potatoes in a medium saucepan, cover with cold water by 2 inches and add 1 tablespoon kosher salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to simmer, cover and cook until fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain well, return potatoes to the pan and put back over low heat, stirring a few times, to dry well.
• Add crème fraîche, lemon zest, parsley, oregano and chives. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Gently crush with a potato masher until combined. If desired, potatoes may be covered and kept in a warm oven for up to 30 minutes. To serve, transfer to a bowl and drizzle with Meyer lemon vinaigrette while still hot.

Steps:

• Cut 1 pounds peeled Yukon Gold potatoes into 1-inch chunks; toss with 3 tablespoons olive oil, 3 chopped garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon each pepper and dried oregano in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Add 1/4 cup each lemon juice and chicken broth. Roast at 425 degrees F until the potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Toss with chopped parsley.

Steps:

• Slice 4 peeled potatoes into 1 1/2-inch rounds. Toss in an ovenproof skillet with 1/3 cup lemon juice, 1/4 cup olive oil, 4 smashed garlic cloves, 4 oregano sprigs, and salt and pepper. Add enough water to come halfway up the sides of the potatoes. Cover, bring to a boil and cook 5 minutes. Uncover and roast at 500 degrees F, 30 more minutes.

Steps:

• Cut potatoes in half, then cut each half into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Pour oil into large nonstick skillet, and place over medium heat. When oil is hot, add cinnamon stick and cumin; cook, stirring, for 30 seconds.
• Add the potatoes, and season with salt and pepper; raise heat to high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown on both sides, 6 to 7 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and chicken stock, add salt and pepper to taste, cover, and reduce heat to medium low. Cook the potatoes until very tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Toss in the cilantro, and transfer to a serving dish.

Steps:

• Set up a grill for cooking with indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
• Place the potatoes in a cast-iron pan. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon zest and juice, olive oil, mustard, garlic, oregano, a pinch of salt, some black pepper and 2 cups water. Pour the mixture over the potatoes and toss to combine. Turn the potatoes so they are cut-side down in the pan.
• Place the pan on the indirect-heat side of the grill, then close the lid and bake until the potatoes are tender, about 40 minutes. Remove from the grill and serve with a squeeze of lemon, a sprinkle of sea salt and a drizzle of olive oil.

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1 1/2- to 2-inch chunks. Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and add enough water to cover by 1 inch. Add 2 tablespoons salt, cover and bring to a boil over high.
• Uncover, lower the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are very tender when pierced with a small paring knife, about 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Meanwhile, cut the butter in 1/2-inch dice and put it back in the refrigerator.
• After the potatoes are drained, pour the milk into a small saucepan and heat over low just until it simmers. Turn off the heat.
• Place a food mill fitted with the finest blade on top of the large saucepan. Process the potatoes into the pan. (Alternately, use a ricer or potato masher, making sure the potatoes are very smooth before proceeding.)
• With the heat on low, vigorously whisk the cold butter into the potatoes several bits at a time, waiting for each addition to be incorporated before adding more butter.
• Once all the butter has been integrated, slowly whisk in enough of the hot milk to make the potatoes the desired consistency, creamy but still thick. Add 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Whisk in the lemon zest, reserving some for garnish, if desired. Season to taste, and serve hot. Sprinkle with reserved lemon zest just before serving.

Steps:

• 1. Cook bacon and crumble. Set aside. 2. Combine stock, garlic, potatoes, celery, salt and pepper in a large pot and bring to low boil. Simmer for 15 - 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Remove from heat and puree until smooth. 3. Return pot to stove over medium heat and stir in lemon zest and cream. Simmer for 5 minutes to incorporate flavours. 4. Just before serving, stir in dill. Garnish each bowl with bacon.

Steps:

• In a large pot of salted water, boil the potatoes until they are almost falling apart.
• Drain potatoes thoroughly and return to pot.
• Add the butter and mash the potatoes with a potato masher.
• When butter is incorporated, season with salt to taste.
• Just before serving, finely shred the zest of the lemon right into the potatoes and stir well.
• Note: (that's right, there is NO milk in this recipe, but you can squeeze in the lemon juice if desired).

Steps:

• Cover potatoes with water in a pan. Add 1 tablespoon salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain potatoes and halve lengthwise.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallot and garlic, and cook until soft, about 2 minutes. Add potatoes, cut sides down, and cook until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in stock, wine, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until liquid is reduced by a third, about 2 minutes.
• Remove from heat. Add thyme and butter, and stir until butter has melted. Stir in lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
