As the saying goes, all good things come in threes. For example, there were 3 Wise Men while Donald Duck had 3 nephews! And as the video above shows, we've come up with 3 great recipes for preparing potatoes in classy and tasty ways.
1. Creamy Potatoes
You'll need:
- 11 small round potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp chopped rosemary
- 1 tsp chopped thyme
- 2 chopped garlic cloves
- salt
- 1 tbsp butter
- 10 fl oz chicken stock
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley
Here's how:
1. Add the potatoes, olive oil, rosemary, thyme, butter, and salt to a pan.
2. Next add the chicken broth and leave it to cook down until the broth has boiled away and the potatoes are soft.
3. Press the potatoes flat using a second, slightly smaller pan and fry it on both sides until they are crispy.
4. To finish, sprinkle on some parsley before serving.
