Recipe Type: potato, garnish, dinner party
Prep Time: 15 min
Total Time: 15 min
Yield: 1 potato rose
Ingredients:
Potatoes, unpeeled, (10 to 15 slices are needed per rose)
2 - 4 plain wooden toothpicks for each flower
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Slice potatoes 1/8-inch thick. Put into boiling water for 1 minute; immediately plunge into
an ice water bath to stop the cooking; drain and pat slices dry.
On a flat surface slightly overlap each potato slice in a long continuous row; roll up as tightly as possible being careful
they do not break.
Secure the rolled up potato slices with plain toothpicks at the base in an
"X" shape. Cut a thin slice off the bottom end of the roll so they sit level.
Brush with melted butter; adjust slices to resemble a rose and bake on a greased baking sheet for 45 minutes.
Can be made 1 day
in advance covered at room temperature.
Remove toothpicks and serve on a dinner plate with a
meat entree.
