CRISPY ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200ºC/400ºF.
• Peel the potatoes, cutting any larger ones so they're uniformly sized. I cut mine to be a little smaller than a ping-pong ball.
• Wash the potatoes in cold water to remove any extra starch then add them to a large empty pot. Boil water enough water to cover the potatoes well (about 2 inches higher than the potatoes) pour over the potatoes, salt the water, and parboil for 5-7 minutes, then drain in a strainer and leave dry.
• Once dry, gently shake the strainer to rough up.
• Add the potatoes into a large bowl. Add the oil, salt an pepper, gently stir to coat and transfer to a baking sheet in one layer, and add the fresh thyme.
• Roast in the hot oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown. For even browning, flip the potatoes in the pan halfway through the cooking time.
• Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain off any excess oil and serve.

BAKED POTATO ICE CREAM

Steps:

• For the "butter" frosting: Line the inside of a cover of a butter dish with plastic wrap. Fill the cover completely with yellow frosting and freeze until hard. Lift the "butter" out of the cover using the plastic wrap. Cut into squares.;
• For the potato ice cream: Have a sheet pan covered with plastic wrap. On 1/2 of the pan, place the pint of ice cream down on its side. Fold the plastic over the ice cream and make a seal.
• Using your hands, quickly form the ice cream into a potato shape. Then, create a wedge across the length of the potato. Tightly twist the ends of the plastic wrap and make knots at each end, like a mozzarella ball.
• Place the ice cream in the freezer until it hardens, about 20 to 30 minutes.
• Remove the ice cream from the freezer, unwrap and dust all over with cocoa powder. Fill the wedge with whipped topping and place a pat of "butter" frosting on top. Sprinkle with pistachios and serve immediately.
