My parents stopped by our house this weekend since they were in the area. As usual, my mom asked if I needed anything (i.e., food from her most recent Sprouts or Costco run) before they hit the road. When she called, I was at the grocery store so couldn’t think of anything … except fresh rosemary from my dad’s yard. I was planning to buy a small clamshell of it and could save myself a few dollars….
Spanish Tortilla with Roasted Peppers and Peas
My first attempt at making a Spanish tortilla was a complete disaster. I was at my then boyfriend-now husband’s apartment. For some reason, I thought I could turn out a decent omelette using his cruddy cookware….
Potato Frittata
I whipped up this potato frittata on Sunday and have been slicing off small pieces for dinner throughout the week. Fortunately, it’s one of those dishes that tastes as good – if not better – on the second, third and even fourth day after it’s made. Filled with caramelized onions, roasted potatoes, asparagus, bacon and cheese, it’s like an omelette on steroids….
Sautéed Potato Salad With Maple-Balsamic Vinaigrette
I’ve already told you about my aversion to gluey and bland potato salad so I won’t bore you with details as to why this potato salad is superior. All you really need to know is that rather than boiling plain old Russets, this recipe starts by frying Yukon Golds in bacon fat. I said it, bacon fat….
Crispy Baked French Fries
Who can resist a good french fry? I, for one, can. It’s not that I don’t enjoy these salty, deep-fried spuds every now and again, but I can just as easily do without them. These crispy baked french fries, however, are a different matter. I could eat these lightly seasoned potatoes by the handful. And because they’re roasted and not fried, you won’t feel guilty doing so (unless you’re on a no- or low-carb diet, of course)….
Farmers’ Market Potato Salad
This is not your average potato salad – in fact, it’s a cut above most mayonnaise-based versions, which are often gluey and bland. It’s light and tangy and can be eaten warm, cold or at room temperature, making it an ideal side to bring to a barbecue or potluck. And unlike it’s monochromatic cousin, this potato salad is a kaleidoscope of colors, thanks to the addition of lightly sautéed zucchini and red onion, and halved mini tomatoes….
