Best 6 Pommes De Terre A La Parisienne Parsleyed Potato Balls Recipes

EASY PARISIAN POTATOES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Using a melon baller, scoop out as many rounds from the raw potatoes as you can and place them in a large saucepan filled with cold water.
• Salt the water, bring it to a boil, and then cook the potatoes for 4 minutes. Drain well and set them aside for a moment.
• Preheat the oven to 425 F. Melt the oil and butter, or duck fat, in a large ovenproof skillet set over medium-low heat.
• Add the blanched potato rounds to the pan and gently toss them so they are evenly coated in the fat. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the potatoes and then roast them, stirring occasionally, in the heated oven for 25 to 30 minutes.
• The Parisian potatoes are done when they turn golden brown. Serve immediately as a side dish with steak, chicken, or seafood.

CRISPY POTATO BALLS

Steps:

• Mix together the Mashed Potatoes, flour, egg, parsley, Parmesan, mozzarella and black pepper in a bowl. Place the breadcrumbs on a large plate.
• Form the potato mix into 12 golf-ball-sized balls. The mixture will be a little sticky, so wet your hands a little as you go. Place the balls directly on the breadcrumbs and roll each ball in the breadcrumbs, pressing to make sure they stick well. Put the breadcrumbed balls on a plate.
• Heat 2 inches of oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven to 375 degrees F, or until the mixture bubbles when a breadcrumb is added.
• Add the balls to the oil and fry until golden brown on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes total. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle immediately with salt.
• Garnish with more Parmesan and parsley.
• Peel and cut the potatoes into pieces of approximately the same size. Bring a large pot of water to a simmer and add the potatoes. Bring to a boil and cook until a fork easily slides into the potatoes with no resistance and the potatoes almost, but not totally, fall apart, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Drain the potatoes in a large colander. Place them back into the dry pot and put the pot on the stove. Mash the potatoes over a low heat, allowing all the steam to escape.
• Turn off the stove and add the butter, cream cheese and half-and-half. Mash, mash, mash! Add the seasoned salt and black pepper.
• Stir well and place in a medium baking dish. Throw a few pats of butter over the top of the potatoes and place bake until the butter has melted and the potatoes are warmed through, a few minutes.

Fry potatoes, turning over once with a slotted spoon, until crisp, golden, and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain briefly. Fry remaining potato mixture in batches in same manner.
