Ingredients

  • 1kg waxy potatoes (such as Charlotte or Yukon Gold)
  • 100g duck fat
  • 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
  • 150g soft goat cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely snipped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • Flaky sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

1

Peel the potatoes and slice them very thinly, about 3mm thick, using a mandoline or sharp knife. Do not rinse the slices as the starch helps them crisp up.

2

In a small bowl, combine the soft goat cheese, chives, tarragon, olive oil, and lemon zest. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, mix until smooth, and set aside at room temperature.

3

Melt the duck fat in a large non-stick or cast iron skillet over medium heat.

4

Add the potato slices to the pan, gently tossing to coat them evenly in the duck fat. Spread them into an even layer.

5

Cook over medium-low heat for 15 minutes without stirring, allowing the bottom layer to become golden and crispy.

6

Gently turn sections of the potatoes with a spatula, scatter the sliced garlic throughout, and continue cooking for another 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until all potatoes are golden, crispy on the edges, and tender inside.

7

During the final 5 minutes of cooking, sprinkle the chopped parsley over the potatoes and gently fold through.

8

Season generously with flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.

9

Transfer the pommes sarladaises to a warm serving dish and top with generous spoonfuls of the herbed goat cheese.

10

Serve immediately while hot, allowing the goat cheese to slightly soften over the warm potatoes.
