Glazed Sweet Potatoes with Maple Gastrique

The best thing about learning how to make a gastrique is that it’s extremely easy to do. It makes a simple dish look like it just came across the kitchen line of a four-star restaurant. A basic gastrique is a reduction of vinegar and sugar thick becomes a thick syrupy sauce. These Glazed Sweet Potatoes with Maple Gastrique is a perfect example. The tangy-sweet glaze works really well with these sweet potatoes.

Greek Lemon Potatoes

These Greek Lemon Potatoes are so good, crisp, and tangy. Anything with lemons in the title is worth making, as far as I am concerned. They are made with potatoes, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, Rosemary, thyme, and parsley. The potatoes are roasted until they are golden brown and tender, and the lemon juice gives them a bright and tangy flavor. This would pair well with some breaded chicken breasts and a salad.

Those Potatoes

My mother-in-law used to make “Those Potatoes”. I have no idea where she got the recipe from. They are very crispy and delicious. It works best if you cook them in a cast iron skillet.
