Best Fried New Potatoes Recipes
HOT AND NUMBING STIR-FRIED NEW POTATOES
These stir-fried potatoes are inspired by a modern street snack served in Xi'an, China. They can be parboiled in advance, require only a few minutes of stir-frying in a wok before serving, and can be flavored with a wide range of spices and aromatics, making them an ideal side dish for any menu, simple or complex. In addition to the Xi'an-style original with hot and numbing spices, you can also make a curry-spiced version with crunchy, fried cumin and mustard seeds, or a rosemary and garlic version that would be at home on a traditional Thanksgiving table (see Tips).

Steps:
- Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with cool water by 2 inches. Season heavily with salt. (The water should taste like very salty seawater once the salt has dissolved.) Place over high heat, bring to a boil and cook until there's no resistance when a knife or cake tester is poked through the largest potato, about 10 minutes after they come to a boil. Drain potatoes and spread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet to air-dry.
- While the potatoes cook, make the spice blend: In a small bowl, shake the Sichuan peppercorns and discard any shiny black seeds, twigs or leaf fragments. Add the husks to a dry wok, along with the star anise, fennel seeds, white peppercorns and half the cumin seeds. Toast over medium heat, tossing frequently, until very aromatic, about 2 minutes. Transfer mixture to a small bowl to cool slightly. Return wok to heat and add remaining cumin seeds and the chiles. Toss and stir until very aromatic, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a second small bowl.
- When cool, transfer the spice mixture in the first bowl, along with the 2 chiles from the second bowl to an electric spice grinder or a mortar and pestle. Add salt, sugar and chicken bouillon. Grind to a fine powder and return to the empty bowl.
- Add the cumin seeds that toasted with the chiles to the spice grinder or the mortar (no need to clean it out) and pound or pulse until very coarsely ground. (There should be large, distinct pieces of cumin seeds.) Add half-ground cumin and the sesame seeds to the rest of the spice mixture and stir to incorporate.
- Stir-fry the potatoes: When potatoes are dry, heat 3 tablespoons oil in the wok over high heat until shimmering. Add potatoes and cook, stirring and tossing frequently, until browned in spots, about 4 minutes.
- Clear a small space in the center of the wok and add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to it. Immediately add the garlic, scallions and spice mixture to the oil and stir until aromatic, about 15 seconds. Toss everything until the potatoes are thoroughly coated in spices, about 15 seconds. Season to taste with more salt as desired. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only to medium-high heat.
- Place a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven over direct heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil along with the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper and add the garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Add enough water to cover the potatoes halfway, close the grill and steam until the potatoes are cooked through and the water has evaporated, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Lightly smash the potatoes with a potato masher and drizzle with more olive oil. Cook until the potatoes are crispy on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Serve sprinkled with flakey salt and dill and a squeeze of lemon.
- (Alternatively, you can cook the potatoes over medium-high heat on a stovetop.)
OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH NEW POTATOES
I like to par boil the potatoes and place them in the baking pan along with the chicken. They can easily be butter tossed and seasoned after they roast. Also, I have found that 1/2 a cup of bread crumbs isn't enough to well cover 4 breasts.
