Simplest Gnocchi

It's taken me years, but I've perfected my Gnocchi, so why not share it with all of you as I didn't find many recipes for just plain old Gnocchi on the site, though there were many with variations, but I'm an old-fashioned Italian and I like them the way Nonne in Italy have made them for years (though in some parts of Italy Gnocchi is made with either ricotta or semolina - but more on that another time!)

Nonna Franca's Potatoes

My Nonna Franca made these potatoes for me when I visited Rome with her right after I graduated from H.S. I was young and I'd never had such a good potato ( my American mother wasn't really a cook). I remember I came back to the U.S. and tried to recreate the recipe, at first using the wrong kind of potato. Eventually I learned the right potatoes to use and just how long to fry them for. Yet, still, mine are good, but I've never been able to make them as good as Nonna did. It's funny how an Italian grandmother can simply fry a potato better!

Twice Baked New Potatoes

First off, they aren't really twice baked, but that is just what we call them. I often make these to take to parties and they are usually gone in about 2.7 seconds. Tasty, portable, and a good base for those of you who will be - ahem - tipping a few. I don't make them fancy or twirly or piped - these are rustic chunky looking little fellas. Mr L is thrilled that the theme initiated a sudden midweek new tater incident.

Serves 12 taters

The WFP: Greek Mahogany Potatoes

The idea for this recipe comes from Avgolimono soup. Some recipes are more about guidelines than about measurements. This is one of those recipes.

New Potatoes Baked in Parchment

For an herb-infused delight, try cooking new potatoes in parchment. It's easier than it sounds. You pile a couple of pounds of potatoes onto a large round of baking parchment along with garlic, herbs and olive oil. Fold the parchment into a parcel and consign it to the oven for 45 minutes. When you open the package, steam-roasted new potatoes beckon. Indulge.

Gnocchi With Spring Vegetables and Basil

This recipe was a happy accident. Justin Smiley, one of the chefs at Barbuto in the West Village of Manhattan, froze a batch of gnocchi. But the chef Jonathan Waxman needed some right away, so he threw the frozen gnocchi into a pan with butter and oil, browned them and tossed them with vegetables.

Coconut Oil Roasted Sweet Potatoes

Here, coconut oil deepens the natural caramelized flavor of roasted sweet potatoes, and it adds a delicate coconut essence. Brown sugar and nutmeg sweeten the dish, and a dash of black pepper makes it for adults. It's just delicious.

Potato and Onion Frittata

This dish is based on the classic omelet of Spain, tortilla española. In the authentic dish, the potatoes are fried, and most recipes call for copious amounts of oil. In this version, I steam the potatoes to cut down on oil and use a waxier variety of potato with a lower glycemic index. Waxier potatoes also have a better texture when steamed instead of fried.

Sweet Potater Bakes

Along the lines of Sweet Potato fries, I bring to you Sweet Potato Bakes. A healthier and -in my opinion- tastier branch-off of these awesome spudniks. Seasoning the taters with Garam Masala (which can easily be found at Whole Foods and the like) adds a touch of Indian deliciousness to these bad boys.

Raclette potato pancakes

I love raclette cheese. I love potatoes. This idea for putting the two together in this way came to me while I was living in Avignon, France. It was in the winter time, and the Mistral had been blowing something strong for several days in a row, and it called for some serious comfort food... The best bites from this pancake happen on the edges, when the melting cheese oozes out the sides and crisps up. [Hanukkah worthy? My wife made this pancake for writer and Nobel laureate, Elie Wiesel, and he gobbled it down. You be the judge!]

Potato Pancakes with Ham, Gruyere and Fennel

Potato Pancakes with Ham, Gruyere and Fennel

Fennel, gruyere, ham and potatoes were meant for each other like pizza dough, tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese. There are a couple of ways to go about potato pancakes. One of the main debates for me is raw grated or bake the potato, cool and saute. For this recipe I decided to go the baked potato route because it insures the interior is cooked and you can do them on the stove top insuring a thick crispy crust. The next question is soft interior to crispy exterior ratio. To thin and you get no creamy and to thick and there isn't enough crunch. Finally the kind of fat is really important too. Oils don't seem to give you the golden brown and sometimes cook unevenly. Butter browns to fast but will give a good flavor and crust if added toward the end as if you were using it to finish. Finally chicken fat, lard, goose fat and duck fat are all great in my book. They flavor the potatoes nicely and brown the pancakes very evenly and make them golden. A couple of years ago I made some ring molds by cutting the tops and bottoms off of water chestnut cans. First off they only cost 99 cents and second they are a good size, 3 inches round and 2 inches thick. This is the size ring mold you will need for these pancakes.

Cindy's Mom's Sweet Potatoes (or Yams)

My friend Cindy gave me this recipe for her mom's yams/sweet potatoes. They're the bomb! I love sweet potatoes on their own but dolled up like this? Irresistible. Giving the yams/sweet potatoes a long, slow simmer in the salted butter-brown sugar-maple syrup concoction changes everything -- they're tender, buttery-smooth and surprisingly, not too sweet. Try to find tubers that are relatively straight to make the initial quartering easier.

Creamy Potato Salad With Yogurt Vinaigrette

You may worry about the amount of dressing in this luscious salad, but you'll find that it is largely absorbed by the potatoes. The salad resembles a classic creamy potato salad with lots of crunchy celery, but there's only a smidgen of mayonnaise here. The technique of softening the onions with boiling water comes from the cookbook author Deborah Madison.

Dinner Tonight: Bangers and Mash with Onion Gravy Recipe

Bangers and mash sounds like a relatively simple, two-ingredient dish, but there's actually a third, equally important component that doesn't get main billing: onion gravy, the glue that holds this meal together.
