Description

Crispy roasted fingerling potatoes with tangy vinegar flavor and sea salt finish


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds fingerling potatoes, scrubbed clean
  • 1/2 cup white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup malt vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt, divided
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1. Fill a large pot with water and add both vinegars along with 1 tablespoon of kosher salt. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
  2. 2. Add the fingerling potatoes to the boiling vinegar water. Cook for 15-18 minutes until they’re tender when pierced with a fork but still hold their shape.
  3. 3. While potatoes cook, preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  4. 4. Drain the potatoes thoroughly in a colander. Let them sit for 2-3 minutes to allow excess moisture to evaporate.
  5. 5. Using a potato masher or the back of a large spoon, gently press down on each potato to flatten it slightly. You want to create craggy edges without completely smashing them.
  6. 6. Transfer the smashed potatoes to your prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
  7. 7. Drizzle the olive oil over the potatoes, then sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of kosher salt and black pepper.
  8. 8. Roast for 25-30 minutes until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
  9. 9. Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with sea salt flakes and fresh herbs.

Notes

Store leftovers in refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in 400°F oven for 10-12 minutes to restore crispiness.
