Ingredients

Serves 4 as a side dish or 6 as an hors d'oeuvre

4 russet (baking) potatoes (about 2 pounds)
1/2 cup rendered goose fat
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves (preferably flat-leafed)
  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 325°F.

    Step 2

    已经准备好了一碗冷水。削土豆皮,witha 3/4-inch melon-ball cutter cut out potato balls, dropping into water as cut. Drain potatoes in a colander and transfer them to several layers of paper towels, patting very dry.

    Step 3

    In a 12-inch ovenproof heavy skillet (preferably cast-iron) heat goose fat over moderate heat until hot but not smoking. Add potatoes, stirring to coat with fat, and roast in middle of oven, turning potatoes every 15 minutes, until crisp and golden, about 45 minutes.

    Step 4

    While potatoes are roasting, in a very small saucepan cook garlic in butter over low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes.

    Step 5

    With a slotted spoon transfer potatoes to a large bowl and stir in garlic butter, parsley, and salt to taste.

  • Exceptional. I got this right the first time round and have been making it ever since. I have also tried it with baby potatoes hoping to save myself a bit of trouble but it didn't turn out as nice as balling out the russet potatoes.

  • I made this with duck fat and it was very good, although the potatoes did stick to the pan a bit. I didn't bother with the melon baller, just cut the potatoes into bite sized chunks.

  • I tried it with duck fat and it was spectacular. It was a hit except that it wasted quite a bit of potatoes since I scooped them into balls. I'll try slicing them the next time.

  • I roasted the potatoes at a higher temperature with a sprinkling of chopped rosemary and this was delicious. Don't be afraid to leave the potatoes in for a while, shaking the pan every so often so they get very crispy.

  • Spectacular. Made as many as my oven could hold and should have made twice as much. So easy too, did not even have to turn to have crisp, golden slices. An added incentive to roast goose or duck.

  • Has anyone tried this with tiny new potatoes? I'd like to do it for Christmas dinner, and think the little potatoes would have the same effect with less labor. Any reason why not?

  • This is much like what we do with tiny new potatoes in butter. We used Yukon Gold potatoes and enjoyed it very much.
