Provided by Jhumpa Lahiri

Categories     breakfast, side dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds waxy potatoes
Salt
Olive oil
1 head garlic, separated into cloves, peeled
Chopped fresh herbs, optional
Ground black pepper, optional

Steps:

  • Cut potatoes, peeled or not, into large chunks no more than two inches across. Salt a pot of boiling water and cook potatoes until just done. (A sharp knife should easily glide in, but potato should not slide off knife immediately.) Drain. This step can be completed in the cool of the morning; cover potatoes and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Heat half an inch of olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet. When hot, add potatoes and garlic cloves and fry, nudging now and again, until crisp and golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Shower with salt and, if desired, chopped herbs and black pepper. Serve immediately.

SARATOGA CHIPS



Saratoga Chips image

This is supposedly the way that potato chips were first made, by George Crum in Saratoga New York, around 1850. With all the types and variety of chips available today, they certainly have "come a long way baby, to get where they got to today"! nt

SYRACUSE SALT POTATOES



Syracuse Salt Potatoes image

Salt potatoes are a regional specialty of Syracuse, New York, a.k.a. The Salt City. Salt potatoes date to the 1800s, invented by local salt mine workers who created a simple and inexpensive lunch by boiling small potatoes in brine. The potatoes are still very popular today with the Central New York crowd, making an incredibly easy and delicious side dish.

SARATOGA POTATO CHIPS



Saratoga Potato Chips image

Number Of Ingredients 11

CARAMELIZED SHALLOT DIP:
vegetable shortening or vegetable oil for deep-frying
1 cup thinly sliced shallot
1 cup sour cream
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
SARATOGA POTATO CHIPS:
1 pound baking (Idaho or russet) potato, peeled
vegetable shortening or vegetable oil for deep-frying or leftover shortening from shallots, above
salt for serving

Steps:

  • 1. TO MAKE THE DIP: Line a jelly roll pan with crumpled paper towels. In a deep Dutch oven, melt vegetable shortening over high heat to a depth of 2 to 3 inches and heat it to 350°F. If you have a frying basket to fit the Dutch oven, place the shallots in the basket. Deep-fry the shallots until golden brown, about 1 minute. Remove from the shortening (if you aren't using a basket, use a wire-mesh skimmer) and transfer to paper towels to drain until cool. (You may use the same shortening to fry the potato chips, but if there are small pieces of shallots floating in it, remove them. If necessary, carefully strain the shortening through a wire strainer into another pan, then return it to the Dutch oven.) 2. In a small bowl, combine the shallots, sour cream, chives, salt, and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to blend the flavors. 3. TO MAKE THE CHIPS: Using a mandoline, cut the potatoes into paper-thin rounds. As they are cut, place them in a bowl of cold water and let stand while heating the shortening. 4. Place a large wire cake rack over a jelly roll pan. Fill a roasting pan with crumpled paper towels for draining the fried chips. In a deep Dutch oven, melt vegetable shortening over high heat to a depth of 2 to 3 inches and heat it to 350°F. 5. Drain the potatoes well. Line a work surface with paper towels and spread with 1 layer of potatoes. Separate each new layer of potatoes with more paper towels and pat the potatoes completely dry. 6. In separate batches, without crowding, deep-fry the potatoes, stirring often with a wire-mesh strainer to separate the chips, until the chips are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Using the skimmer, transfer the chips to the wire rack to drain briefly, then move them to the paper towels to remove excess oil. Separate each new layer of chips with more paper towels. The potato chips will crisp as they cool, and are best served at room temperature within 6 hours of frying. Just before serving, sprinkle with salt. Serve with the shallot dip. NOTE: Don't salt deep-fried foods until just before serving, or the salt will make the food soggy.

SARATOGA POTATOES



Saratoga Potatoes image

In "America Cooks," by the 1940s food writers Cora, Rose and Bob Brown, the trio declared: "A century ago, when Saratoga Springs was in its heyday as a fashionable resort, specialties from there swept the country, and one of them, Saratoga Chips, will endure as long as there are spuds left to slice." They were partly right. The recipe has endured, all right, but Saratoga vanished from the name. We now call them potato chips.

Categories     quick, weekday, appetizer, side dish

Time 40m

Yield Serves 8 as an hors d'oeuvre, 4 to 6 as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 large white potatoes, peeled
Olive oil, for frying
Salt

Steps:

  • Slice the potatoes 1/8-inch thick (or thinner); use a mandoline if you have one. Soak the potato slices in cold water until ready to fry, then drain and dry them thoroughly on a towel.
  • Fill a large sauté pan with ½ inch olive oil. Place over medium-high heat; the oil is ready when it browns a breadcrumb in 30 seconds (or try this this cold oil method). Drop a few potato slices at a time into the oil and fry until the edges begin to brown, 3 to 4 minutes, then turn the slices and brown the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Keep warm in a 175-degree oven while you fry the rest of the potatoes.
  • Just before serving, pile the potatoes into a bowl and season with salt, tossing to disperse the seasoning.
