Comment préparer Salt Crusted Baby Potatoes
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash 1 pound of baby potatoes thoroughly and pat them completely dry with a clean kitchen towel. This ensures crispy results.
- Cut approximately 1/3 of the potatoes in half and place them cut-side down in an oven-safe baking dish or casserole dish.
- Arrange the remaining whole potatoes in a single layer around the halved potatoes. This maximizes browning.
- Scatter 4-6 cloves of garlic (smashed with the flat side of a knife) amongst the potatoes.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 large egg whites with 3 cups of coarse sea salt until a moist, paste-like consistency is achieved.
- Carefully pour the salt mixture over the potatoes, ensuring they are completely covered. Gently pat the salt to create an even layer.
- Bake for 60-80 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Baking time may vary depending on potato size and oven.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the potatoes to cool slightly.
- Bring the dish to the table. Using a metal spoon or spatula, crack the salt crust and carefully remove the potatoes.
- Dust off excess salt, gently squeeze open the potatoes (if halved), and smear with a bit of the roasted garlic.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the crispy exterior and creamy interior!
