roasted potato stacks
with pecorino and marjoram
- 1.5kg small sebago (starchy) potatoes,
- peeled and finely sliced on a mandolin
- ½ cup chopped marjoram leaves
- ½ cup (40g) finely grated pecorino
- sea salt and cracked black pepper
- ½ cup (120g) store-bought duck fat
- Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Place the potato, marjoram, pecorino, salt, pepper and duck fat in a large bowl and toss to combine. Divide the potato between the holes of a lightly greased 12 x ½-cup-capacity (125ml) muffin tin+. Cover with non-stick baking paper and aluminium foil. Cook for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil and baking paper, reduce oven temperature to 180°C (350°F) and cook for 20–25 minutes or until golden. Run a sharp knife around each stack and turn out. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to serve. Makes 12.
+ The potato will sit slightly above the rim of the muffin tin holes, but will shrink as it cooks.
