Sunnys Mommys Sage Potatoes Recipes

SAGE POTATOES AU GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter an 8 by 8-inch casserole dish using 1 tablespoon of the butter.
• In a pot, add the heavy cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and sage leaves. Bring to a simmer and steep for 10 minutes. While steeping, peel and slice the potatoes 1/8-inch thick on a mandolin. Begin to layer the potatoes on the bottom of the prepared dish, overlapping each slice by half. When the first layer of potatoes is complete, season with salt, cayenne pepper, and sprinkle with a third of the cheese. Repeat two more times, ending with a final layer of just potatoes.
• Strain the heavy cream and discard the sage. Pour the heavy cream over the casserole, pressing the potatoes down. Dot the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in pieces evenly over the top of the potatoes. Cover with aluminum foil and place in the oven, lowering the temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake, covered, for 40 minutes. Uncover and bake 20 minutes more. Serve hot.

SUNNY'S MOMMY'S SAGE POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat the bottom and sides of an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with the butter; set aside.
• In a saucepot on medium heat, add the heavy cream, sage, garlic and a pinch of salt. Bring to a low simmer and cook until the cream becomes fragrant with the scent of sage, about 10 minutes.
• Layer the potatoes in the prepared dish. Add each slice by overlapping the previous slice by a bit and continue this pattern in a row or create a spiral. Once the first layer is done, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and cayenne pepper. Repeat the next layers by doing the same. Once the layers are complete, strain out the sage leaves and garlic from the heavy cream and pour the cream over the dish. Allow the cream to settle into the dish, picking it up a little bit off the counter, then dropping it to tap the air out. Then, sprinkle with the cheese. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
• Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake the potatoes for 45 minutes; remove the cover and bake until the cheese is golden, about 15 more minutes.

ROSEMARY GARLIC SMASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large pot of water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft. Drain the water.
• Pre-heat your oven to 400 F.
• Drizzle olive oil over a large baking sheet lined with tin foil, then place potatoes on top of the sheet, around 2-3 inches apart.
• Take a potato masher and very slowly flatten each potato until it's about 1 inch thick, trying to leave the skin on the top. The thinner you get them, the crispier they are!
• Sprinkle the garlic, rosemary and salt over top of each potato.
• Drizzle each potato with olive oil.
• Bake in the oven until they reach desired crispiness, ( I usually take around 20 minutes but I like them super crispy!) then add on the Parmesan cheese. Bake another 5 minutes or until it melts/browns.
• Remove and serve!
