Ингредиенты

  • Caramel
  • Potatoes Crisped in Duck Fat with Prunes
  • 2¼ pounds
  • russet potatoes
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • or kosher salt, plus more to taste
  • Set the oven at
  • 475 degrees. Peel the potatoes and cut them into pieces about 1½ inch
  • squared. Rinse them under cold water and then place them in a large pot
  • filled with cold water. Bring the potatoes to a boil and then simmer them
  • for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the potatoes and then shake them in a colander
  • to rough up their edges a bit and drain off the excess water.
  • In a rimmed
  • baking sheet or sheet pan, scoop in the duck fat and heat it up in the oven
  • until it just starts to smoke (5 to 8 minutes). Carefully take the pan out of
  • the oven and gently toss in the potatoes. Place the pan back in the oven
  • (on the highest rack) and cook the potatoes for 50 to 65 minutes, or until they
  • are golden and have turned crunchy; during the cooking, turn the potatoes
  • occasionally with a spatula to ensure even coloring.
  • When the
  • potatoes look just about ready (this was at about the 50 minute mark for me),
  • take out the sheet pan and—if the potatoes still contain a good deal of
  • fat—carefully tip the pan to remove the excess (I did not have to do this:
  • there was barely any fat left sitting in the pan). Add ½ tsp of salt and
  • the prunes, toss gently, and return the potatoes to the oven for about 5 more
  • minutes.
  • During this
  • time, make the caramel by placing the sugar in a medium saucepan over low
  • heat. Without stirring, cook the sugar until it turns into a liquid and
  • becomes a rich caramel color (you can swirl the pan occasionally, if needed, if
  • the sugar isn’t caramelizing evenly). Remove the pan from the heat at
  • once and quickly pour in the ice water. (Be careful it doesn’t spatter on you:
  • don’t hold the pan too close). (You’ll want to have the ice water ready,
  • so place some ice cubes in water while you heat the sugar and keep a measuring
  • spoon nearby.) Immediately return the pan to the heat and whisk to dissolve any
