Duck Fat Potatoes Alternate Version

by Charlie McCarthy, Sr.

Ingredients

• 3 cloves garlic
• 1.5 kg yukon gold potatoes
• 100 g duck fat
• salt

Recipe

1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. Place the garlic and 3 cm pieces of yukon gold potatoes in a saucepan of cold salted water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes or until par-boiled.
3. Drain, then return the potatoes (discard the garlic) to the pan and shake well over medium heat to dry out and rough up the edges (this will help them crisp up when roasting).
4. Place the duck fat in a roasting pan, then place in the oven for 5 minutes to heat. Remove from the oven, carefull add potatoes to duck fat and gently toss to coat.
5. Return to the oven and roast, turning twice, for 45 minutes or until golden and crisp. Sprinkle with salt and serve.

Enjoy!
