Ingredients

4 people
  • 1.5 pounds Russet potatoes
  • 2 cloves garlic (chopped)
  • 2 teaspoon paprika powder
  • 2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • unsalted butter, olive oil, salt

Equipment

  • Big bowl
  • Large pan
  • Baking sheet
  • Spatula

INSTRUCTIONS (how to make this recipe):

  • Peel and chop the potatoes.
  • Put them in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for half an hour, pouring off the cloudy water.
  • Preheat the oven to 225 degrees Celsius/435 Fahrenheit top and bottom heat.
  • Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil with plenty of salt. Cook the potatoes until al dente (not overcooked), about 10-15 minutes.
  • Drain them, let them boil dry for a while so that the excess liquid evaporates, then place them on a baking sheet with the garlic, cornstarch, spices (no salt!) and a nice drizzle of olive oil. Spoon over the top and put in the oven for 45 minutes.
  • After 15 minutes, stir (a bit vigorously) and after half an hour, add a few cubes of butter.
  • Take out of the oven and season with salt. Enjoy your meal!
