Ingredients

  • 2 pounds yellow potatoes
  • 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • 3 Tbsp butter
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 6 sage leaves
  • 3/4 cup vegetable stock/broth
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 Tbsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp ground black pepper

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C).
  2. Slice potatoes on each side lengthwise to create a thick plank and using a metal ring cutter or round cookie cutter, stamp out yellow potatoes to form a puck-like shape. Then hold in cold water.
  3. In an oven-safe, nonstick frying pan or skillet, turn on the heat to medium-high, and add vegetable oil and brown potatoes on each side 2-3 minutes.
  4. Then add butter, garlic, and sage, using a spoon baste potatoes, until butter lessens in bubbling, and it smells nutty and starts to brown about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Then add stock, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Using a wooden spoon, slowly whisk to remove caramelized bits from the bottom of the pan. Cover pan with aluminum foil and place potatoes in the oven and roast for 30 minutes.
  6. Remove potatoes from oven and let cool slightly. Serve.

Olive Oil Mashed Potatoes

These wonderful mashed potatoes are inspired by the Lebanese Mediterranean style of cooking. Olive oil and yogurt provide richness and complexity, instead of the usual butter and sour cream. Choose a mild olive oil. Yukon gold potatoes really shine in this recipe! Garlic cloves cook in the pot along with buttery potatoes, mashing up beautifully for yet another savory layer of flavor.
