Fingerling Fries
- 1 1/2 pounds fingerling potatoes
- 2 tablespoons light or extra virgin olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Paprika to taste (see Note)
- Scrub the potatoes well.
- No need to peel them, but do cut away any overly dark or knobby spots, of which there should be few.
- Cut each potato in half lengthwise, which results in a short, chunky French-fry shape.
- Place the potatoes in a nonstick skillet with 1/2 cup water.
- Bring to a simmer, then lower the heat and cover.
- Simmer steadily for 5 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the potatoes can be pierced with a knife but are still quite firm.
- Drain any water from the skillet.
- Drizzle in the olive oil.
- Turn the heat to medium-high and fry the potatoes, stirring frequently, until touched with golden brown on most sides, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and season with salt and paprika.
