How to make the 15 hour potato. Recipe below 👇 2.5kg/5.5lbs maris piper or russet potatoes 600ml/20fl oz double cream 4 crushed cloves of garlic Salt and pepper Vegetable oil to deep fry in Peel and slice the potatoes nice and thin. I use a mandolin for speed and consistency. Simmer the cream with the garlic for 5-10 mins until thick and season well. Add the slices of potato into the cream. In a lined tin pour the creamy potatoes roughly. They don’t have to be exact just flat. Pre heat the oven to 130°C Fan/300°F/Gas Mark 2. Add parchment to the top of the pavé and add a layer of baking beans to help cement the spuds then place in the oven for 2-3 hours. Once cooked, remove from the oven and flatten with something - could be cans or cooking beans. Then place in the fridge for 12 hours (or over night). Once set, cut your slab of spuds into you desired shape. Get a deep pan ready for deep frying. Or a deep fat fryer and get it to 180°C and deep fry until golden and crispy. Season with salt and enjoy!!! #potatotiktok #potato #15hourpotato

You need to be airfrying your sprouts! 😍❤️ get the full recipe in my air fryer cookbook or enjoy it below for free 👇 50g butter, melted 500g frozen Brussels sprouts (if fresh, cut in half) 100g bacon lardons 50g pre-cooked chestnuts, chopped sea-salt flakes and ground black pepper Instructions Heat the air fryer to 180°C/350°F.

Day 21… bacon-wrapped potato fondants 😍😭 get the recipe below 👇 Ingredients 8 maris piper potatoes 8 rashers of pancetta or thin streaky bacon 10 sprigs of Rosemary 6 cloves of garlic 250g clarified salted butter Enough chicken stock to finish covering the spud babies Cut the potatoes into similar heights and then into rounds as best you can. You can use cutters if preferred as it's a little quicker! Get the pancetta wrapped around them and secure it by piercing it with a piece of rosemary. A nice sturdy piece. In a small sauce pan add in oil. You want enough to cover the base of the pan. Place the pan on medium-high heat and add in the potatoes, bottom down (if that makes sense). Let the spuds get some colour, this usually takes around 5-10 mins. After this time, flip them over and add in the clarified butter. You can find my recipe for clarified butter in the description above. Use the chicken stock to then make sure the potatoes are just covered. Then add in the garlic and Rosemary. Add some parchment on top and leave to cook on a medium low heat for around 50-60 mins. It’s a long process but it’s worth it! You are looking for all the stock and some of the butter to have evaporated. Leaving you with super soft fluffy potatoes in a pool of caramelised butter. Once it’s like this turn the heat off and leave the spuds in the pan. After about 10-15 mins they will be ready to wiggle off of the bottom of the pan! Add a sprinkle of salt and you’re good to go! #24ChristmasPotatoes #christmasfood #potatotiktok #potatoes

How to make the crispiest roast potatoes To feed 6 people, I like to use: Around 9 large potatoes, or a few extra if they’re small 200g/7oz goose fat, beef dripping or vegetable oil (if using vegetable oil, you will need a little less oil than you would fat) 2 chicken stock cubes 2-3 tbsp flaky sea salt #potatotiktok #potato #roastpotatoes

How to make fondant potatoes. Recipe below 👇 6 red skin potatoes 150g butter 1 chicken stock pod 200ml water 3 cloves of garlic 1 sprig of thyme + rosemary Salt and pepper Instructions Cut your potatoes into the same lengths and widths. (Using a cutter is an easier way to do this, but you can get by without one!). Once your potatoes are cut, get them into water to prevent browning. To clarify your butter, place it in the microwave until melted, do not stir! Leave in the fridge or freezer to set. Once set, poke a hole in the corner and let the milky bit out, this will help prevent burning whilst cooking. Get half of your butter melting in a medium heat pan. Place your potatoes in flat side down, leave them to colour in the butter for around 10-15 minutes. Add in your just crushed garlic, thyme & rest of your butter. Once coloured, add in your stock. Turn the potatoes over and turn the heat up slightly to bring the liquid to the boil. The liquid should be just at the top of the potato, but not covering. Leave this to reduce by about a centimetre, then add a cartouche/parchment paper on top. Leave them on a medium-highish heat, (just keeping a loose eye on them) for around 40-50 minutes, depending on the size of you potatoes. Once the liquid is half way down the potatoes, remove the parchment and leave them on the heat for about another 15-20 minutes. (Once you see that the stock liquid has gone, you should still see the fatty, buttery bit left, this is what is going to give you the caramelised crispy potato top). Now don’t be alarmed but you want your fondant to stick to the pan. That’s when you KNOW it's going to be good. So leave the fondants on a low-medium heat until you can’t remove them from the pan Take them off the heat and leave to the side, they can take anywhere between 10 and 20 minutes to remove themselves from the pan, don’t rush them or you may end up with all the good bit left, looking up at you in the pan! Once they are wobbling free, turn the over and basque in all their glory. #potatotiktok #potato #carbs

Confit brown butter carrots. Recipe below 👇 250g/9oz unsalted butter, cubed 8 small carrots, peeled but left whole 1 whole star anise 1 cinnamon stick 4 cloves garlic, bashed but in their skins 1 tsp cumin seeds 1 tsp maple syrup 1 tsp red wine or moscatel vinegar Chuck all of your butter, star anise, cinnamon stick, garlic, cumin seeds, maple syrup and vinegar into a small pan (you want it just big enough to fit the carrots in). Season well with salt and pepper, then bring to a bubble and leave until the butter browns. Tip in the carrots and swirl the pan to coat in the buttery goodness. Scoop all of the spices up and pop them on top of the carrots, then put on a lid and leave to gently simmer away until the carrots are tender (approximately 7-12mins depending on the size of your carrot). #confitcarrots #Recipe #vegetables #christmas #christmasfood

Did someone say buttery potato balls? Here’s how to make noisettes 👇 Ingredients 4 medium maris piper potatoes 50g salted butter 2 garlic cloves, sliced thinly salt to taste Instructions Peel and ball your potatoes, you should get around 3-4 balls per potato, depending of the size of the spud. I used a melon baller to get that spherical shape. Once balled, place them in a pan of cold salted water, bring to the boil and cook for around 8-10 minutes until tender. Don't let them get too soft as you don't want them to lose their shape and go mushy. Then, drain them off and get a frying pan on medium heat with the butter in. Once the butter is frothy add the potato balls in the buttery pan and leave to cook for say 10-15 minutes more. Keep stirring and turning the potatoes over. You want the butter to turn brown and frothy. At this point add in the garlic and leave to cook for another 5 minutes or so. Once the potatoes are golden all over and you can smell nuts they are ready. Sprinkle with flakey salt and dig in! #potatotiktok #potatoes #spuds
