Germany - Potatoes w/Caraway Seeds

By Addylicious

Ingredients

• Pan-roasted Potatoes with Caraway Seeds [serves 4 as a side dish]
• 1 1/2 pounds thin-skinned, waxy potatoes, peeled and cut in half (if using organic, may leave the skins on)
• 2 tablespoons neutral vegetable oil (or 1 tablespoon oil + 1 tablespoon unsalted butter)
• 2 teaspoons caraway seeds
• 1 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Step 1

1) Steam or boil the potatoes until barely tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from pot. When cool enough to handle, slice into ½ inch thick pieces.

2) Heat the oil (and butter, if using) in a large fry pan. Layer potatoes into the pan and cook on medium heat. Turn frequently so they will brown evenly. When they begin to brown, scatter the caraway seeds and salt over the potatoes and toss. Cook another minute or two. The potatoes should be gently browned around the edges. Eat hot.
