Steamed New Potatoes With Bacon Recipes

CHEESY POTATOES WITH BACON

Steps:

• Boil washed, peeled and sliced potatoes in water until just fork tender; drain.
• Add back to the pan, and add diced Velveeta, Miracle whip, salt and pepper. Stir gently to combine.
• Pour into a greased 9x13 inch pan; layer uncooked bacon on top of potatoes. Bacon can be cut into small bite-sized pieces.
• Bake at 350 degrees F until bacon is done and potatoes are bubbly, around 45 minutes.

BABY POTATOES WITH BUTTER & FRESH HERBS

Steps:

• Boil potatoes: Place potatoes in a large pot of cold tap water with 1 tbsp salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower heat to medium so they're simmering gently (this stops skin splitting). Cook for 10 - 15 minutes until there's no resistance when pierced with a knife. Alternatively, steam the potatoes.
• Steam dry: Drain in colander then leave for a minute to let the potatoes steam dry (if wet, butter won't stick).
• Toss with butter: Transfer to a bowl, add salt, pepper and butter. Toss to melt and coat.
• Add herbs just before serving. Stir through, transfer to serving bowl and serve warm!

STEAMED BUTTERY HERBED NEW POTATOES

Steps:

• Steam the potatoes, covered, over boiling water until cooked, testing with a bamboo skewer to avoid splitting them, for about 15 minutes.
• Mix butter, herbs and salt and toss potatoes in the mixture until coated.
• Serve hot.

CRISPY POTATOES WITH BACON, GARLIC, AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Put the potatoes and salt in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat and simmer for 1 minute, then drain. Pat dry.
• Meanwhile, put the bacon in a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or a saute pan over medium-low heat, and cook until nearly all the fat has rendered and the bacon is crispy, aromatic, and browned, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel lined plate.
• Add the 1 to 2 tablespoons of butter or oil to the remaining bacon fat. Increase the heat to medium. Add the potatoes, positioning them in the pan so the cut sides get nice and brown. Cook turning only as needed until the potatoes are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Stir in the parsley, garlic, and bacon and stir until fragrant and lightly browned. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Serve.

HERBED NEW POTATOES

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a Dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed pot. Add the whole potatoes, salt, and pepper and toss well. Cover the pot tightly and cook over low heat for 20 to 30 minutes, until the potatoes are just tender when tested with a small knife. From time to time, shake the pot without removing the lid to prevent the bottom potatoes from burning. Turn off the heat and allow the potatoes to steam for another 5 minutes. Don't overcook! Toss with the herbs, and serve hot.

STEAMED NEW POTATOES WITH BACON

Steps:

• Steam potatoes until tender, about 20 minutes.
• While potatoes are steaming fry the bacon until golden then remove it from the pan to drain. Chop the bacon.
• Add shallots to the bacon fat and saute until they just begin to brown. Off heat stir in the vinegar.
• When the potatoes are tender, remove them to a serving dish and season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss lightly with the bacon fat mixture, dust with the chopped bacon and parsley and serve.
