Caramelised Potatoes (Sukkerbrunede Kartofler)
Description: A recipe I found online at Denmark.dk for their Christmas recipes. These potatoes sound so different from what I have had and so tasty. Posting this for ZWT 6. I haven't tried them yet, but would taste them and then determine if they needed any salt or pepper.
Ingredients:
- 2 1/4 lbs potatoes (1 kg)
- 6 tablespoons sugar (85 g)
- 5 tablespoons butter (75 g)
Steps:
- Peel and dice potatoes then add them to a large sauce pan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil on high heat then reduce to a slow boil for 15 minutes. Rinse the potatoes in cold water and drip dry.
- Melt the sugar in a frying pan until golden. Add the butter and put the potatoes in the mixture when the butter has stopped fizzing. Brown the potatoes over a brisk fire while stirring.
- Caramelised potatoes are not suitable for re-heating, for then they will not become shiny, but dull and furry.
