Le migliori patate novelle croccanti fracassate e alle erbe

One of our all-time favorite summer dinners at my household is the delightful dish of crispy crushed new potatoes. I can't emphasize enough just how beloved these spuds are; we indulge in them at least once or twice a week during the warm summer months. If you're looking for a simple, mouthwatering recipe that delivers arguably the best smashed new potatoes ever, you've come to the right place. These crispy, herby potatoes are incredibly versatile and complement a wide range of meals. One day, we might pair them with a refreshing green salad, and the next, they're the perfect sidekick for a hearty roast dinner.

La bontà delle patate novelle

Le patate novelle sono una vera delizia se cotte con la buccia. Basta una bella strofinata per eliminare lo sporco prima della cottura. Non solo hanno un sapore straordinario, ma contribuiscono anche al tuo apporto quotidiano di frutta e verdura, rendendoli una scelta eccellente per un salutare contorno vegano o piatto principale.

Mescolare i sapori

The beauty of these crispy smashed new potatoes is that you can easily change up the seasoning to suit your preferences. For instance, when I paired them with a big summer salad and lemon butter chicken, I kept the seasoning simple. But if you're planning to serve them alongside something spicier, don't hesitate to add a few chili flakes or smoked paprika.

Ecco alcune delle mie nuove combinazioni di sapori di patate preferite in assoluto per iniziare:

• Scorza di limone ed erba cipollina.
• Aglio e rosmarino.
• Parmigiano ed erba cipollina.
• Scaglie di peperoncino.
• Erbe miste italiane.

Come cucinare delle patate novelle perfette

One of the most common questions I receive is, “How long should I boil new potatoes?” As you can see in the recipe below, I boil mine for around 20 minutes, but the key is to make them soft enough to be easily pierced with a fork while ensuring they don't become too soft to fall apart. When they reach that ideal stage, it's time to roast your potatoes. Trust me, they're so delicious that you might find them quite addictive, which explains why we enjoy them so often.

Qual è un altro nome per le patate novelle?

You might come across new potatoes with different names; they're often labeled as baby potatoes or creamers. The name “creamers” is quite common because new potatoes are frequently cooked in a creamy sauce with peas and onions.

Un consiglio fondamentale per bollire le patate novelle

When you're getting ready to boil new potatoes, always start with cold water. This is because potatoes are dense and take time to heat thoroughly. Placing them in boiling water causes the outside to cook faster than the center, leading to unevenly cooked spuds.

La scelta perfetta per le pentole

I've fallen in love with using pirofile in vetro Pyrex for this recipe. They're perfect because I can take them straight from the oven to the kitchen table. To protect my table, I usually place them on a tagliere. The dish not only looks great but also keeps the food warm for longer when dining outdoors. Lately, I've been transitioning to non-metal and tin cookware whenever possible to eliminate unhealthy non-stick coatings and metal pollutants in our food.
