Title: Batata Harra (Lebanese Twice Cooked Potatoes)
Categories: Potatoes, Vegetables, Chilies, Herbs, Citrus
Yield: 10 Servings
3 lb Waxy potatoes; (red, Yukon
- gold, Maine, peeled, diced
- about 1/3"
Cooking spray *
1/3 c Olive oil; +3 tb, divided
1 ts Salt
1/2 ts Black pepper
8 cl Garlic; minced
2 ts Chile paste *
1 lg Handful cilantro; chopped
3 tb Fresh lime juice
Set oven @ 400 F/205 C.
Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil or a silpat and spray
with cooking spray.
In a large bowl mix the potatoes, 3 tb olive oil, salt, and pepper
and lay out on baking sheet making an even layer.
Bake in oven until fork tender, about 35 to 45 minutes, set aside. *
In a large skillet over low-medium heat, when the pan is hot, add
the remaining olive oil, garlic, and chili paste. Stir and cook for
1 minute being careful not to burn the garlic (garlic can burn
easily and becomes bitter). Add the cilantro and potatoes, stir.
Cook for 3 to 5 more minutes until the outside becomes crispy, take
of heat and serve.
Drizzle a little fresh squeezed lime juice on each serving.
* Notes: You may also use a higher heat, neutral cooking oil such
as canola, sunflower or grapeseed oil.
Any chile paste will do. Korean Gochujang has a slightly smoky
taste and would be great in this dish.
You can boil the cubed potatoes instead of baking, they may come
out less crisp when pan-frying but will be just as delicious.
