Description

Spiral Roasted Potatoes with Garlic and Bacon - potato slices tossed with lots of garlic, arranged in a vertical spiral for maximum crispness, roasted with bacon tucked into every little crevice. The BEST way to cook potatoes!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 medium/large potatoes, scrubbed and sliced about 1/8 inch thick (about 2 1/2 lbs, 1.2kg)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 whole head garlic, minced fine
  • 3oz bacon, diced (85g)
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter (1oz, 28g)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Toss sliced potatoes with minced garlic and olive oil in a large bowl.
  2. Using the largest pieces first, arrange the slices in a spiral around the edge of a 12 inch cast iron pan, tucking the last potato under the first. Continue making spirals until you have filled the pan.
  3. Tuck pieces of bacon into the cracks and crevices, lifting pieces of potato and sticking some bacon in between.
  4. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Roast in a 400 degree oven for about 45 minutes, brushing with butter in the last 15 minutes. The potatoes should be tender and cooked in the middle, brown and crispy on the edges.
