Roasted Potatoes with Green Garlic and Mascarpone
Total time: 40 minutes
Roasted potatoes are finished with green garlic and creamy Mascarpone cheese for a slightly decadent spring dish.
Ingredients:
- 2 medium potatoes
- 4 tsp oil, divided
- 3 green garlic substitute 3 green onions and 1 clove garlic
-
1/4 cup mascarpone
Instructions:
- Slice potatoes in half the long way, then in half again. Then slice in half or thirds the short way.
- Put 2 tsp of oil into large bowl, add potatoes and toss, coating thoroughly.
- Arrange potatoes on baking sheet with rim (I use my trusty, round pizza pan)
- Bake at 400F for 30 minutes.
-
Trim green garlic and slice, using as much of the green tops as reasonable or trim and slice green onion and mince garlic.
- Mix remaining 2 tsp oil, green garlic (or onion and garlic) and mascarpone in large bowl.
- When potatoes are done, add to bowl and mix well.
- Either serve immediately - or put in an oven-safe serving dish and keep warm in a low (200F, 100C) oven for up to 15 minutes.
