Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the fingerling potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Cut any larger fingerlings in half lengthwise for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Sauté Shallots

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt the duck fat. Add the sliced shallots and sauté until they are soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Toss Potatoes

    In a large bowl, combine the fingerling potatoes with the sautéed shallots, fresh thyme, fresh rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat the potatoes evenly.

  4. 4

    Roast the Potatoes

    Spread the potato mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm, garnished with additional herbs if desired.
