Best Twice Baked Baby Potatoes With Caviar Recipes

CRAB AND CAVIAR TWICE-BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Pierce the potatoes with a fork a few times on all sides. Place on a baking sheet and bake until fork-tender, 1 hour to 1 hour 20 minutes. Let cool slightly. (Leave the oven on.)
• Meanwhile, melt 4 tablespoons butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook until softened but not browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small bowl in the microwave.
• Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, use a paring knife to make a slit lengthwise down the top of each, cutting about halfway through. Make another small slit across the first to make a "t". Gently push the sides of the potato with your hands to loosen the filling. Scoop out the flesh to a large bowl with a spoon or melon baller, leaving a 1/4 inch of flesh in the skins to preserve the shape of the potatoes. Return the potato skins to the baking sheet.
• Mash the potato flesh until smooth. Add the shallot butter mixture, creme fraiche, chives and lemon zest, then season with salt and pepper. Gently fold in the crabmeat.
• Spoon the mixture evenly into the potato skins. Drizzle with the remaining melted butter. Bake until browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Top each potato with a dollop of creme fraiche, a sprinkle of chives and a spoonful of caviar. Serve immediately.

• Using the flat bottom of a small saucepan gently press down on each potato until it flattens slightly and the skin splits
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper. I prefer kosher salt.

BAKED POTATOES WITH CRéME FRAICHE AND CAVIAR

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F with a rack in center. Bake potatoes directly on rack until darkened slightly, beginning to wrinkle, and easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 1 to 1 1/2 hours (depending on size).
• Working one at a time, immediately wrap potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and slam down onto a countertop (this ensures a light, fluffy texture). Slash potatoes to open, season, and top generously with dollops of crème fraîche and scoops of caviar. Serve immediately.

NEW POTATOES WITH CREME FRAICHE AND CAVIAR

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
• Wash potatoes and place on 2 lightly oiled cookie sheets. Bake for about 30 minutes.
• Cool potatoes before handling.
• Trim either end of each potato and then cut in half, leaving trimmed edges on the end to allow potatoes to sit upright. Using a small melon baller, scoop out inside of each potato half, leaving at least 1/8-inch edge.
• Fill pastry bag, fitted with a star tip, with creme fraiche. Fill each scooped-out potato half with piped creme fraiche.
• Garnish top of each potato with red or black lumpfish roe.

ROASTED POTATO SLICES WITH CAVIAR

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush both sides of potato slices with olive oil. Place on baking sheet and season lightly with salt and pepper. Bake until golden brown on bottom sides, about 15 minutes. Turn slices over and continue baking until second sides are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer to plate.
• Top slices with small dollops of sour cream. Sprinkle with chives. Spoon small amount of caviar atop sour cream and chives. Serve immediately.
