Equipment

  • - Deep Fryer (Designed for large quantities of oil use, ensuring even cooking temperature and consistent results)

  • - Dutch Oven (Ideal for slow-cooking and crisping potatoes in a controlled environment)

  • - Nonstick Pan (Useful for initial sautéing or frying to avoid sticking, facilitating easy removal of the dish)

  • - Potato Masher (For garnishing or serving crispy potato dishes with mashed elements)

  • - Food Processor (Assists in efficiently slicing and dicing potatoes before cooking)

  • - Oven-Safe Baking Dish (Used for baked potato preparations, complementary to fried versions in a meal)

  • - Mandoline Slicer (Offers consistent thinly sliced cuts for uniformity when preparing potatoes, crucial for even cooking during frying)

Ingredients

  • 4 pounds unpeeled medium-size red-skinned potatoes

  • 4 1/2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 3 tablespoons malt vinegar or white wine vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

  • 6 tablespoons lard, rendered bacon fat, or olive oil, divided

Instruction 2

Cut potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes (do not peel). Whisk oil, vinegar, and mustard in small bowl to blend for vinaigrette. Heat 3 tablespoons lard in each of 2 large nonstick skillets over medium-high heat. Add half of potatoes to each skillet; sprinkle with coarse salt. Sauté until potatoes begin to brown, stirring frequently, about 7 minutes. Add 3 tablespoons beer, then 1 1/4 cups red onions to potatoes in each skillet; cook until beer evaporates, stirring occasionally, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium and sauté until potatoes are brown around edges, about 5 minutes. Pour half of vinaigrette over potatoes in each skillet and toss to coat. Remove from heat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer all potatoes to large bowl. Sprinkle with chives.
