Sarladaise potatoes
Potatoes fried in a little goose fat, with a mixture of chopped parsley, garlic and shallot added just before serving. Greedy folks (like me) melt a few thin slices of foie gras over the top.

Step by step recipe
Stage 1 - ⌛ 20 min.
Peel 1 kg potatoes, cut into medium-sized pieces, rinse and dry.

Cover, turn down heat and leave to cook 30 minutes.
Stage 3 - ⌛ 5 min.
After this time, salt and pepper, then shake or stir to bring potatoes that are already fried up to the top.
It's better to not use a spoon or spatula to avoid breaking the potatoes, but if you use one, do it gently.
Leave to cook another 5 minutes.

Just before serving, add the mix of chopped herbs and stir well.
Stage 8
Serve on its own (it's quite filling), or to accompany a meat dish for example.
Remarks
For the perfect dish, use duck fat saved from cooking home made terrine of foie gras.
As usual with traditional regional recipes, I do not claim that this is "THE" recipe for Sarladaise potatoes, just that it's "ONE", my own version.

Bouquet garni
Used very frequently in French cuisine, a secret of French chefs, it adds flavour to a lot of recipes, and it's easy to prepare. The basic principle is to make a small bundle of herbs, bind them in green leek leaves and to tie it up, so that the whole thing can be removed and discarded easily after cooking.
