Fried Potato Peels

Ingredients

  • About 2 cups neutral oil, such as canola oil
  • Peels from 5 potatoes, dried well with paper towels
  • Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Special equipment: a deep-frying thermometer
  2. In a Dutch oven or a large, wide pot, add the oil and heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer registers 350 degrees F.
  3. Fry the potato skins in the hot oil until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with clean paper towels to drain the excess oil. Sprinkle on some salt and pepper.
  4. Melt the butter in a pan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, 1 to 2 minutes.
  5. In a large bowl, combine the skins, garlic butter and fresh parsley and toss to coat. Season with a little more salt and pepper. Serve warm.
