These Melting Potatoes Are Golden, Custardy, and Impossible to Resist [View all]
This old French trick makes potatoes melt in your mouth.
Pommes de terre fondantes, also known as melting potatoes, are thick potato rounds treated like meat: seared in oil or animal fat, basted with butter, and then braised in the oven. The result is a side dish with deeply caramelized surfaces, custard-like interiors, and a glossy pan sauce.
The dish consists of thick potato rounds seared until golden, then braised in herb-infused chicken broth and butter until their centers become custardy and the sauce is glossy. Despite their recent internet fame, melting potatoes are nothing new; they're rooted in a classic French technique and have long been a staple on French dinner tables.
((A bit complicated for me! Good luck to y'all!!!!))
