Notes: We like duck fat for its rich flavor, but it can be hard to find. Fortunately, you can substitute any type of fat in this recipe—beef drippings, bacon grease, or even olive oil.
Ingredients: 5 large Yukon gold potatoes
Sea salt
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup warm duck fat
Instructions:
1.Peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch cubes. Place potatoes in a
pot and cover with water. Season water heavily with salt (it should taste like
seawater). Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until nearly cooked, 10–15
minutes.
2.While potatoes are cooking, mix flour with 2 teaspoons
salt and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
3.Preheat oven to 400º; place
a large baking sheet in the oven to warm. Drain
potatoes. Immediately toss potatoes in seasoned flour and then toss in warm
duck fat. Place potatoes on the hot baking sheet and transfer to oven. Cook for
40–60 minutes or until golden brown.
