I made these little ‘potato roses’ for my grandchildren. They are picky eaters, so I thought I could charm them with these pretty little ‘roses’
The verdict? ‘ Yes Nonna, they are actually quite delicious’. Hallelujah!!!
• calculate about half a potato per person
• I like to use the Desirée variety
• pre heat oven to 190 ˚
• with a mandolin, slice the potatoes very thin
• add about 50 gr melted butter
• a little crushed garlic ( optional)
• fresh rosemary thinly chopped
• salt and pepper
• 50 gr freshly grated parmiggiano ( optional)
• mix all well in a bowl
• butter some muffin moulds
• add a little pile of potatoes
• bake them in the oven for about 40 minutes or until golden brown
• and here they are, ‘potato roses’
• I put optional next to some ingredients, meaning that if you have picky eaters like me, leave them out.
