Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 pounds red or yellow potatoes
  • 1/2 medium onion (about 2 ounces)
  • 1 head garlic
  • 1/2 cup frying oil (we use grapeseed)
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instruction

  • Heat your oven to 475° F.
  • Wash your potatoes, then cut into approximately 1-inch chunks (peeling if desired).
  • Place all remaining ingredients in a food processor, blender, or cup for use with an immersion blender. Purée.
  • Toss potatoes with the onion mixture until thoroughly coated. You might have extra mix leftover if you used a large onion. Do not skimp on the coating; you want it *almost* too-wet looking.
  • Spread evenly on a baking sheet (or two). Make sure the potatoes are evenly spread so they cook uniformly; I've always found it easier to use 2 pans with fewer spuds each than to cram them all on one.
  • Roast in the hot oven until deeply browned and smelling fragrant. I start checking for doneness around the 30-minute mark to ensure they don't burn. If you had to use two pans and put them on two racks, make sure to rotate after 20 minutes or so.
  • Serve immediately with ketchup, or my favorite: a 30/30/30 mix of ketchup, mustard, and horseradish cream.
