POTATOES, CABBAGE - CARAWAY

By:


As served in THE OCTOBER DINNER SHOW.  This can be done with a home fried potato or a plain potato as you might use for potato salad.

Ingredients:

  • POTATOES

    2 pounds Russet Potatoes or combination varieties

  • 4 ounce salted butter
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon ground pepper

Method:

Place 2 quarts of water in a medium sauce pot with 2 tablespoons salt; bring to a boil. Meanwhile wash and cut potatoes in half and place potatoes in boiling water; reduce to a simmer and cook for 12 minutes or until “just” tender. Remove and cool. When cooled to touch, peel and dice to desired size and hold cold for service.  At service, heat butter on moderate heat in large heavy bottom saute pan. Add potatoes and cook until lightly crisp and cooked through. Add seasoning and hold warm until needed to add to cabbage. Alternative: Use potatoes warm immediately after boiling, plain without making into home fries.
