POTATO LOGS

Steps:

• Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Place potatoes in the water and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash.
• Mix Italian-style seasoning and egg yolk into the mashed potatoes. Allow potato mixture to cool approximately 10 minutes, or until it may be safely handled.
• Place flour, egg white and dry bread crumbs in three separate small bowls. Roll potato mixture into 1 inch logs or balls. Cover in flour, dip in egg white and coat with bread crumbs.
• Carefully lower small batches of the coated potatoes into the deep fryer. Fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes.

CRISPIEST EVER POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Add the potatoes to a large saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Add the baking soda and 1 tablespoon salt to the water. Cover, place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Uncover and continue to boil until the potatoes give easily when pierced with the tip of a knife, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and set the strainer over the top of the pan for a few minutes so the outsides of the potatoes can dry.
• Dump the potatoes onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and toss with the garlic, thyme and rosemary until the potatoes are completely coated in the oil. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Using a small juice glass or glass bowl, smash each potato firmly but gently. (You want to just crack the skins and flatten slightly while keeping the potatoes mostly intact.)
• Roast until the bottoms of the potatoes are deep golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and flip the potatoes using a spatula. Roast until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on both sides, an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a platter with a metal spatula. Serve while hot.

CRUNCHY PANCAKES

Steps:

• Make the batter by combining the pancake mix, milk, brown sugar, oil and eggs in a large bowl. Stir in the granola, flax seeds, chia seeds and sunflower seeds.
• Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a little butter. Drop in about 1/4 cup of the batter per pancake and fry on both sides until dark golden, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Continue with the remaining batter, adding more butter if needed.
• Serve with fresh berries, Greek yogurt and mint.
