PUNCHED POTATOES Ingredients
– 250 g of small potatoes (ball type)
– Salt to taste
– olive oil to taste
Finishing ingredients
– chopped parsley to taste
PREPARATION:
- Start by cooking the potato balls (see preparation).
- Set aside the other ingredients and utensils for the recipe.
- Preheat the oven to 210°C when the potatoes are finished cooking.
- Grease the tray(s) with olive oil: use the quantity of trays necessary to accommodate the potatoes, without overlapping them.
- Wash well and chop the parsley while the potatoes cook. Leave to dry on absorbent paper.
PREPARATION:
Ball potatoes – Cooking (do this step during pre-preparation):
- Wash small potatoes, preferring larger ones, without removing the peel.
- Place the potatoes in a pan, cover with water.
- Place over high heat and when boiling, add salt and reduce to medium heat.
- Cover and cook for about 25 minutes or until the potatoes are soft, without falling apart (this time depends on the size of the potatoes).
- Return to pre-preparation (step 2).
Potato Punch:
- When they are cooked and soft – test with a fork – drain them well.
- Place each unit of potatoes on a cutting board.
- Using a saucer or vegetable masher, lightly mash the potatoes so that the flesh is slightly exposed.
- Place the potatoes on a greased baking tray, sprinkle them with a little more salt and drizzle with a drizzle of olive oil.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 210°C for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are crispy and golden on the outside.
- Halfway through the time, turn the potatoes to the other side and, if necessary, rotate the pan so that the heat spreads evenly.
- Remove from the oven when they are well coloured.
FINALIZATION AND ASSEMBLY:
- Reorder perforated potatoes on a serving plate or, if you prefer, distribute it on plates next to your main course.
- Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve hot.
