Best New Potatoes With Cornichons Cream Recipes

NEW POTATOES IN A GARLIC CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• How to cook new potatoes:
• Scrub each potato clean with a scouring pad (or the abrasive side of a dish sponge). New potatoes have a very thin skin. You don't have to scrub all of it off, just get at least half of it off.
• Leave bite-sized potatoes whole and cut larger ones in halves or quarters so they are about 1" thick pieces. Place potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, add 1/2 Tbsp salt and boil for 15-20 minutes or until easily pierced with a fork. Drain potatoes.
• In a separate pan, add 1 Tbsp olive oil. Add finely diced onion and saute over medium heat until golden and soft. Add 1 pressed garlic clove and sauté another minute, stirring constantly. Add 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream and 1/2 tsp salt, or add salt to taste, bring to a boil and let simmer an additional 2 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill then remove from heat and pour sauce over potatoes. Toss potatoes in sauce until evenly coated. Cover with lid to keep warm until ready to serve.

SIMPLE CREAMED NEW POTATOES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Put the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water. Add about 1 teaspoon of salt per quart of water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pan, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, or just until the potatoes are tender.
• In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat; blend in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in the milk or half-and-half. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened and smooth.
• Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.
• Drain the cooked potatoes and then transfer to a serving dish.
• Pour sauce over potatoes and sprinkle with paprika.

POTATO SALAD WITH CORNICHONS AND CAPERS

Steps:

• Cover potatoes with water in a medium saucepan. Add 2 tablespoons salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer until tender, 7 to 9 minutes. Drain potatoes, reserving 1 tablespoon cooking water. Let potatoes cool slightly.
• Make the vinaigrette: Whisk together vinegar, mustard, and reserved cooking water in a small bowl. Gradually add oil, whisking until emulsified. Transfer potatoes to a medium bowl, and drizzle with vinaigrette. Add onion, cornichons, capers, parsley, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and the pepper. Using a large spatula, gently stir to combine.

GRILLED POTATO SALAD WITH CORNICHONS AND DILL

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, cover the potatoes with water and bring to a boil. Simmer over moderate heat until just tender when poked with a fork, about 10 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.
• Light a grill and preheat for at least 10 minutes or preheat a grill pan. Slice the potatoes crosswise 1/2 inch thick and transfer to a large bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss.
• Grill the potatoes over moderately high heat until dark brown grill marks form, about 5 minutes. Flip and grill until the potatoes are browned and completely tender, 4 to 5 minutes longer. Return the potatoes to the bowl.
• In another large bowl, mix the cornichons with the pickled onions, the vinegar, dill and the remaining 1/4 cup of oil. Add the potatoes, season with salt and pepper and toss well. Let stand for at least 10 minutes, then serve warm or at room temperature.
