Paprika & Caramelized Onion Roast Potatoes 

By Lisa Starr, 04/15/2024

Ingredients 

5 - 6 large white/yellow potatoes
2 large onions, sliced

3 cloves garlic, finely sliced
1 - 2 tablespoons sweet paprika (I'm generous)
2 teaspoons salt (Maldon best)
1 teaspoon coarse pepper
3  - 4 tablespoons oil

* . This quantity makes one, standard tray and probably feeds 5. Use extra trays if making more as you don't want to overcrowd them and don't cut your potatoes too small.

Directions 

1: Peel potatoes, cut each into 4 or 5 chunks depending on size, and add to a large pot of boiling, well-salted water.

2: Boil for no more than 8 minutes as you want to remove the hard edge but they are not meant to be soft

3: Drain very well, place in a deep, baking tray with sliced onion and garlic, then season very liberally with paprika, salt and pepper.

4: Drizzle over oil and toss together to completely coat the potatoes.

5: Roast open at 200 - 220 C for approximately 40 - 50 minutes till onion is soft and caramelized and potatoes are richly colored then remove from oven.

COOK'S NOTES:  Potatoes can be prepared hours ahead and only roasted at the last minute. Quantities given are a guide only so there's no real need to measure. The secret is in the method and a very generous hand with spicing. Paprika is the secret to the golden bronzing and superb flavor.

Enjoy

Words & Brush Recipe Corner: Pot Roast Dinner

Pot Roast Dinner 

This is the perfect Friday night dinner that takes only minutes to prepare. It is best cooked on the stove on low heat for 8 hours. Alternatively, you can make it overnight in a slow cooker set on low if you want to serve this for Shabbat lunch.

Hello April Thread

 

Now maybe time to plant and start on spring cleaning.  

 

Any hour of the morning is coffee or tea time, join us!  Tell us where you are on your project. Are you happy where it's going?

Maybe the beach will inspire you

Some stories and movies you wish would just keep going, 

I always wonder what happened and the story was just left open ended.

After coffee the gears start churning to get to first tasks of the day.

And this month is spring break for many.  Whether it's the beach, pizza or the mountains or just a staycation works just find t6o recharge.

Go out for seafood at that little restaurant on the beach everyone is talking about.

Remember the nutritional content and the zinc and selenium with omegas in seafood will help recharge the mind and body to write that big important story as it should be written.  Don't forget to read a good book!

Of course  many are homebound but put this on and through the night, very relaxing to take you away for awhile.

In the meantime keep on journaling!
