SAUTÉED NEW POTATOES RECIPES

Steps:

• Cut 1 kg waxy potatoes into chunks.
• Bring a large pan of water to the boil, then cook the potatoes for 3 mins. Drain, shake out onto a kitchen paper-lined tray and leave to cool.
• When ready to serve, heat 6-8 tbsp sunflower or olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan until you can feel a strong heat rising.
• If your pan isn’t large enough, fry the potatoes in two batches – rather than crowding them. Have kitchen paper ready to drain them on. Add the potatoes in a single layer, not too tightly packed.
• Turn the heat to medium-high, so that the potatoes sizzle, but don’t stir until they start to brown underneath.
• Turn them all evenly 2 or 3 times until nicely browned all over – this can take about 7 mins.
• Then lift out with a fish slice or large slotted spoon to drain on more kitchen paper. Sprinkle with sea salt.

Steps:

• Using a vegetable peeler, remove a narrow strip of peel from around middle of each potato.
• Cook potatoes in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about 15 minutes. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate).
• Melt butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add potatoes and sauté until crisp and golden, about 7 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer to bowl.
• Sprinkle with parsley.
