SALT-AND-VINEGAR SMASHED POTATOES



Salt-and-Vinegar Smashed Potatoes image

Adding a hefty dose of vinegar to the cooking water infuses a lovely tanginess throughout these potatoes. When crisping them, make sure to flip often for even browning without any burning or charring. Don't worry if the potatoes fall apart a bit as they get flipped - the little craggy bits will get extra crunchy.

Time 2h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 30

2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon peppercorns
1 steak, cut along the whole length of the rump, about 1 1/2 pounds and 1 1/4 inches thick
1 small onion, quartered
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon good red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Coarse salt (recommended: Maldon)
Approximately 8 cups arugula
2 lemons, quartered
Rosemary and Garlic Potatoes, recipe follows
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon peppercorns
1 steak, cut along the whole length of the rump, about 1 1/2 pounds and 1 1/4 inches thick
1 small onion, quartered
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon good red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Coarse salt (recommended: Maldon)
Approximately 8 cups arugula
2 lemons, quartered
Rosemary and Garlic Potatoes, recipe follows
3 pounds potatoes
1/2 cup garlic-infused oil
Few sprigs fresh rosemary, torn
Coarse salt (recommended: Maldon)
3 pounds potatoes
1/2 cup garlic-infused oil
Few sprigs fresh rosemary, torn
Coarse salt (recommended: Maldon)

Steps:

  • Squish down on the garlic cloves with the flat side of a knife to bruise them and put them into a large freezer bag. Add the peppercorns, pressing down on them from outside the bag with the end of a rolling pin or a tin of soup to bruise them. Now add the steak, onion quarters, olive oil, vinegar and Worcestershire sauce and mix to combine. Seal the bag and place it in a dish to prevent leakage. Refrigerate for 12 or so hours, or marinate at room temperature for up to 2 hours. The marinating step is critical, so don't cut it short.
  • Bring the steak to room temperature before cooking on a griddle for about 6 to 7 minutes a side; it's hard to say exactly how long it'll take as it depends on how you like your meat. I like mine pretty well still quaking and trembling on the plate, so be prepared to cook it for longer if you want better-done meat. Test by prodding before you start poking knives in: if it's very very soft and bouncy, it's blue; springy, rare; springy but with resistance, medium-rare to medium depending on that resistance; hard, well, you know the answer to that.
  • Take the steak out and lay it on a large piece of foil, sprinkle with salt, and then wrap the whole parcel in another piece of foil and let it stand for 10 minutes before carving thinly, crosswise (on the diagonal). Arrange on a plate lined with arugula leaves. Put a plate of lemon quarters on the table too, for squeezing over the meat as you eat. Serve with potatoes on the side.

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Wash and dry the potatoes, but don't bother to peel them, and cut them into about 3/4-inch dice. Toss with the oil on a large baking sheet, using your hands to mix well. Tuck in some torn up rosemary sprigs, and roast for about an hour, turning once or twice during that time, until they wonderfully crispy and golden but still soft on the inside. When they're done, remove to a large plate and sprinkle with salt.

SALT AND VINEGAR ROASTED POTATOES



Salt and Vinegar Roasted Potatoes image

This recipe turns the classic potato-chip flavor into a dinner party-worthy side dish. The potatoes get a double hit of vinegar: First, they are roasted in a simple vinaigrette, then are tossed with another smack of acidity just before serving. Use white-wine vinegar for a stronger vinegar flavor, or apple cider vinegar if you want a subtler flavor.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons apple cider or white wine vinegar, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1-inch chunks
Flaky sea salt, for serving
Minced fresh chives, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, 1 tablespoon vinegar, kosher salt and pepper. Place the potatoes on a sheet pan, pour the oil and vinegar mixture over them, and toss well. Arrange the potatoes cut-side down.
  • Roast until tender when pierced with a fork, 35 to 40 minutes, tossing potatoes two or three times during roasting process.
  • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar to the cooked potatoes and toss. Season to taste, and add more vinegar if desired. Sprinkle generously with flaky sea salt and chives, and transfer to a serving bowl. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect balance of flavors, use a combination of malt vinegar and white vinegar.
  • For an extra tangy flavor, add a splash of Worcestershire sauce to the vinegar mixture.
  • If you don't have self-raising flour, use plain flour and add 2 teaspoons of baking powder.
  • To make sure the potatoes are cooked through, pierce them with a fork before frying.
  • For a crispy coating, fry the potatoes in batches and make sure they are not overcrowded in the pan.
  • Drain the potatoes on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
