Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Scrub the potatoes, place them on a baking sheet and bake until the thickest part is easily pierced with a knife, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and allow the potatoes to cool completely. Break them up by hand into rough 1- or 2-inch pieces. (This step can be done a day in advance; refrigerate the potatoes until needed.)
- In a small bowl, whisk to combine the mustard and vinegar. While whisking, add the olive oil in a steady stream to form an emulsion.
- In a deep-fryer or pot over medium-high heat, heat about 4 inches of peanut oil or lard to 360 degrees F. Fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown and crisp, using a slotted spoon or frying spider to turn them often, about 4 minutes. When the potatoes are done, use a slotted spoon to transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate.
- In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, scallions and enough vinaigrette to lightly coat (about 2 tablespoons) and toss to combine. Pour onto a platter, sprinkle with flaky salt and serve.
MICHAEL SYMON'S SMASHED AND FRIED POTATOES RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:
- In a large dutch oven, place the potatoes with enough water to cover them by a few inches. Add the thyme, rosemary, and garlic. Salt the water, then bring to a boil. Gently boil until the potatoes are cooked through and tender, about 30 minutes, then drain remaining water. Place the same pan back on medium high heat with the potatoes in it. Let the potatoes dry out for a minute, letting any water evaporate. Add the chicken fat to the pan and once it has melted, begin to slightly flatten the potatoes with the bottom of a smaller pot or ramekin. Make sure to keep the potatoes in an even layer. Brown for about 5 minutes, then flip. Season with salt and pepper and cook until the potatoes are golden brown. Serve with grated parmesan to garnish.
CRISP SMASHED POTATOES WITH FRIED ONIONS AND PARSLEY
Some of you may be thinking, "Does the world need another crisp smashed potato recipe?" At least some of you are saying, "Yes, we do!" So here you go. Regular olive oil works if you don't have chicken fat around, but this recipe is so good, it's worth roasting a chicken. A few tips: Don't over-steam the potatoes or they will fall apart, but don't under-steam or you'll never be able to crush them. Also, let the potatoes cool a bit before you smash them so they dry out a bit; this, too, helps them stay intact. Finally, the chicken fat (or oil) must be very hot. If it is not hot enough, it will soak into the potato rather than crisp it. These are the best. And the crispiest. Make them. You'll be so happy. (This recipe is adapted from "Dining In: Highly Cookable Recipes" by Alison Roman.)

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.

SMASHED AND FRIED POTATOES
As enjoyable as pounding the lights out of an innocent garlic clove or olive may be, probably the most satisfying flat food to prepare are these smashed and fried potatoes from Susan Spungen, which draw in part from a technique used to make tostones. You steam baby potatoes until they're just tender, let them cool enough to be handled, then press them between your palms until they flatten a bit and you hear their skins begin to snap. Next, you heat up some oil in a skillet and fry the potatoes until they're nice and brown on their flat sides. Each potato is then crisp and caramelized but still moist inside.

Steps:
- Place a steamer basket in a large pot filled with an inch of water and add the potatoes and salt. Cover and bring to a boil over medium heat. Steam until the potatoes are just tender when pierced with a paring knife, about 25 minutes. (Don't overcook: they won't hold together when flattened.) Remove the basket and let the potatoes cool enough to be handled.
- Gently squeeze the potatoes, one at a time, between your palms so that they flatten slightly but remain in one piece (some will break, but they can still be used). Pour 1/4 inch of oil into a medium frying pan set over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes in batches to avoid crowding, and fry on both sides until crisp and browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Arrange on a platter and sprinkle with sea salt.

Steps:
- For the potatoes: To a small saucepan, add the potatoes and cool water to cover. Salt the water generously and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-high, and simmer until the potatoes are just tender when pierced with a fork, 10 to15 minutes. Remove from the water and let cool. While the potatoes are cooling, make the spicy aioli.
- For the spicy aioli: In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Sriracha, paprika, garlic lime zest and juice and a pinch salt. Stir to combine and set aside.
- To finish the potatoes: Heat a large cast-iron skillet with your favorite fat until it reaches 350 degrees F. The fat should come 1 to 2 inches up the side of the pan.
- With the heel of your hand, smash the potatoes so they are relatively flat but still holding together. Add the potatoes to the fat and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove from the fat with a slotted spoon and place in the bowl with the aioli. Add a spoonful of the hot fat, stir to coat and transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with the scallions and serve immediately. I guarantee you will never look at a French fry the same way again.

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only to medium-high heat.
- Place a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven over direct heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil along with the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper and add the garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Add enough water to cover the potatoes halfway, close the grill and steam until the potatoes are cooked through and the water has evaporated, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Lightly smash the potatoes with a potato masher and drizzle with more olive oil. Cook until the potatoes are crispy on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Serve sprinkled with flakey salt and dill and a squeeze of lemon.
- (Alternatively, you can cook the potatoes over medium-high heat on a stovetop.)

Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Allow the temperature to reach 300 degrees F.
- For the potatoes: Lay out 2 pieces of parchment paper on top of 2 pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil, making an X. Add the potatoes to the center along with the rosemary, garlic and olive oil. Season with sea salt and pepper, then bring up all 4 edges of the foil. Pour in the white wine and seal the foil and parchment, making a packet.
- Place the potato packet onto the indirect heat side of the grill. Close the lid and cook until the potatoes are cooked through and tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove the potatoes from the grill when ready and set aside. They will keep warm in the packet.
- For the steak: Mix together the kosher salt, pepper and chopped rosemary. Season the steaks liberally with the seasoning mix, patting down to ensure the seasoning really sticks. Place the steaks on the indirect side of the grill, close the lid, and cook until the internal temperature reaches 110 to 120 degrees F, or rare, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove the steaks from the grill, then carefully remove the grill grate and set aside.
- Brush the steaks with olive oil and place directly onto the coals. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until the desired temperature. Remove the steaks to a cutting board to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
- Pour the potatoes into a serving bowl, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Slice the steak and serve together with the potatoes.
PANFRIED SMASHED POTATOES
These are everything potatoes should be: crisp-skinned yet pillowy, sprinkled with a generous amount of salty parmesan. They require no laborious peeling and are much easier to prepare than french fries.
