Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This ensures a crispy exterior on the potatoes.

  2. 2

    Prepare Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into even-sized chunks, about 1-2 inches in size to ensure even cooking.

  3. 3

    Soak Potatoes

    Soak the potato chunks in cold water for at least 30 minutes. This step helps remove excess starch, making the potatoes crispier when cooked.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Drain and Dry

    After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.

  2. 5

    Melt Duck Fat

    In a large oven-safe skillet or roasting pan, add the duck fat and place it in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes until melted and hot.

  3. 6

    Season Potatoes

    In a large bowl, toss the dried potato chunks with salt, black pepper, and fresh rosemary (if using) until evenly coated.

  4. 7

    Roast Potatoes

    Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven. Add the seasoned potatoes to the skillet, making sure they are in a single layer. Roast in the oven for 30-40 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.

  5. 8

    Serve

    Once the potatoes are crispy and golden, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Duck Fat Taters as a delicious side dish!
