Potatoes fried in duck fat

DUCKING FAT POTOES

All chefs rave about duck fat. They're not exaggerating! It adds a depth of flavor that regular oil just can't match. This recipe shows you how to make amazing fried potatoes using this special ingredient.

Here's what you need:
1 kg of small waxy potatoes
duck fat
salt

Here's how you do it:Place the potatoes in a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a knife. Drain the potatoes and quickly rinse them under cold water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool completely. Cut potatoes in half. Do not handle them while they are hot, as they will be too crumbly.
Heat the duck fat in a pan. Once the fat is hot enough, carefully add the potatoes. Don't overcrowd the pan, shalow fry them in batches if needed. Fry potatoes undisturbed for about 5 minutes to get nice and crispy. Gently flip the potatoes and cook until golden brown and crispy all over.

Once the potatoes are done, season them with salt and serve them warm.

Enjoy.
