Potato Toast Recipes

Steps:

• Lightly dry roast the potatoes in a non-stick frying pan to dry out the water.
• Heat 2 tsps. oil in a pan
• Add onions and green chillies to it.
• Saute until the onions are softened.
• Add the mashed potatoes, corriander and mint leaves, red chilli powder, Knorr chicken stock powder and lime juice.
• Mix well.
• Remove from heat.
• Spread a thick layer of potato mixture on each bread slice.
• Brush over with the beaten egg (seasoned with a little Chicken stock powder).
• Shallow fry in hot oil until lightly browned and cooked on both sides.
• Serve hot with Tomato ketchup!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, drizzle potatoes with oil and season with salt; toss to coat. Arrange in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet and roast, flipping once, until tender and beginning to caramelize, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely. Toasts can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 1 week.

Steps:

• The day before, tip the potatoes into a large pan of salted water and simmer for 10 mins or until just tender, saving a little of the cooking water. Drain the potatoes in a colander and leave to cool. Now here's the trick; choose the two chunks that are most cooked and ready for mashing and push these through a potato ricer, then add a little of the cooking water to make a thick potato batter. Roll the cooled potatoes through the batter then put in the fridge on a tray lined with non-stick paper and chill overnight.
• The next day, heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Take a large roasting tin and add a good splash of vegetable oil. Place in the oven and heat for a few minutes, then carefully add the potatoes to the hot fat and turn to coat. Lightly season with salt and roast for 40 mins without disturbing, then turn the potatoes and turn the oven up to 220C/200C fan/gas 8 and continue to roast the potatoes for another 20-30 mins, turning again once, until beautifully crisp and golden all over.

Steps:

• Put a roasting tin in the oven (one big enough to take the potatoes in a single layer) and heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6.
• Peel 1kg potatoes and cut each into 4 even-sized pieces if they are medium size, 2-3 if smaller (5cm pieces).
• Drop the potatoes into a large pan and pour in enough water to barely cover them.
• Add salt, then wait for the water to boil. As soon as the water reaches a full rolling boil, lower the heat, put your timer on and simmer the potatoes uncovered, reasonably vigorously, for 2 mins.
• Meanwhile, put 100g duck or goose fat or 100ml olive oil into the hot roasting tin and heat it in the oven for a few mins, so it's really hot.
• Drain the potatoes in a colander then shake the colander back and forth a few times to fluff up the outsides.
• Sprinkle with 2 tsp flour and give another shake or two so they are evenly and thinly coated.
• Carefully put the potatoes into the hot fat - they will sizzle as they go in - then turn and roll them around so they are coated all over.
• Spread them in a single layer making sure they have plenty of room.
• Roast the potatoes for 15 mins, then take them out of the oven and turn them over.
• Roast for another 15 mins and turn them over again. Put them back in the oven for another 10-20 mins, or however long it takes to get them really golden and crisp. The colouring will be uneven, which is what you want.
• Scatter with Maldon salt and serve straight away.
