Brabant Potatoes
Brabant potatoes, also called Louisiana fries are super crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside and a perfect side dish for anyone who loves potatoes.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs gold potatoes cut into ½-inch cubes
- 2 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 tablespoon butter
- 4-5 teaspoon garlic minced
- 3 tablespoon parsley
Instructions
- Wash and cut the potatoes into ½ inch cubes. You can also choose to peel them if you want to.
- Add 3-4 cups of water in a pot and season with salt. Turn on the heat and bring salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes in. Boil the potatoes for about 5 minutes or until they soften a bit, but don’t cook all the way through.
- Remove the potatoes and transfer to a baking dish. Pop it in a preheated oven for about 8 to 10 minutes or until the potato cubes look golden on the outside.
- Meanwhile, in a saucepan, add the butter and garlic and cook for a few minutes. Now add oil and turn down the heat.
- Toss potatoes in this melted garlic butter sauce in the saucepan and season with salt and pepper. Serve it hot with some chopped fresh parsley.
Notes
You can also choose to make the delicious garlic butter and parboil the potatoes in advance and refrigerate them until you’re ready to put the dish together.
I chose to bake the potatoes, but if you have an Air Fryer, you could use it instead. Make sure you coat the potatoes with oil before you pop them in though.
Make sure the water that you’re using to boil the potatoes is heavily salted.
Remember not to overcook the potatoes in the water- you’ll want them to hold their shape as well and have that nice crispy outside when they’re done.
