Crunchy Potatoes With Dill Onions Recipes

SIMPLE CRUNCHY POTATO AND ONION CASSEROLE - LOW CAL

Steps:

• Note:*** This casserole has no sauce which allows some of the top and bottom potatoes to get crispy- the more the better! Be sure to use a 9x13-inch casserole. DO NOT use a deep dish casserole as this will prevent the potatoes from cooking properly and getting crunchy.
• ***Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Spray the 9x13-inch casserole with non-stick cooking spray.
• Place half of potatoes in bottom of casserole dish.
• Place layer of onions over potatoes.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place remaining potatoes on the top layer.
• Drizzle butter over the entire casserole, using total of 4 tbs butter, if not counting calories.
• Spray top of casserole with non-stick cooking spray.
• Cover and bake 20 minutes in lower third of the oven.
• Uncover and bake an additional 40-50 minutes until potatoes are done and casserole is golden brown on top.
• If you are lucky, the bottom potatoes will be a little browned, too!
• VARIATION: During last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle casserole with 4 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
• Let melt and serve.
• HAM-POTATO VARIATION: Add 8-12 ounces cooked ham or smoked pork shoulder, cubed, between the onion and potato layers.
• Bake as directed.

CRISPY ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place 2 stacked rimmed baking sheets in the oven and let them heat with the oven (stacking them helps the pans hold the heat).
• Toss the potatoes with the oil and 1 teaspoon garlic salt in a bowl. Remove the heated pans from the oven and arrange the potatoes in an even layer, cut-side down, in the top pan. Return the pans to the oven and bake for 15 minutes, then flip the potatoes and bake until both sides are toasted and brown, another 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the mayo, chives, dill, parsley and remaining 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt to a food processor and pulse until chunky.
• Smear the aioli on the bottom of a serving platter. Pile the potatoes on top of the aioli. Drizzle with more olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
