一顆馬鈴薯可以轉化成看似數不清的菜式,且在使用這種樸素塊莖的烹飪過程中,靈感不會短缺。這道南方風味的燉煮馬鈴薯食譜正好證明了以經典食材發揮創意是多麼容易,使用裕光金蕉(Yukon Gold)馬鈴薯呈現出熟悉而耳目一新的光澤。沿用燒燉雞肉或燉豬排的手法,先快速煎香再慢燉,這道食譜能做出極為柔嫩的馬鈴薯片,富有鹹香的層次感。初始的煎香會帶來一些上色,慢燉則會產生濃厚且光亮的肉汁,奶油般柔軟的馬鈴薯口感融於其中。這是一道入口即化的配菜,幾乎可搭配任何主菜,且只需一個鍋、在不到一小時內就能完成。
我喜歡用蔬果切片器(mandoline)來切成整齊且均勻的薄片,這也有助於整道菜均勻受熱;若需要,也可以用鋒利的刀具完成。為了保持風味與外觀,我選用有機 Yukon Gold 的馬鈴薯,連皮一同使用,呈現較為原始的口感;若你願意,也可以去皮。
Gather the ingredients for Southern smothered potatoes
要做這道食譜,先用 Yukon Gold 馬鈴薯、黃洋蔥、蒜頭與香芹。選擇手工挑選的馬鈴薯比袋裝購買更有利,這樣你可以挑出較大、便於切割的馬鈴薯。你還需要雞高湯與奶油,這些也可以以蔬菜高湯與無奶油替代品替換,讓食譜變成素食版本。然後在紙櫃中檢查以下材料:中筋麵粉、橄欖油、鹽與黑胡椒。
Step 1: Slice the potatoes
用刨薄片器把馬鈴薯切成約 1/4 英寸厚的薄片。
Step 2: Toss the potatoes with flour
把馬鈴薯片拌上麵粉、1 茶匙鹽與 1/2 茶匙黑胡椒,直到表面均勻裹覆。
Step 3: Melt the butter in a skillet
在中火下的厚煎鍋中融化奶油與橄欖油。
Step 4: Add the onions
加入洋蔥,攪拌時不時翻動,煮至軟化且邊緣變得透明,大約 6 分鐘。
Step 5: Layer the potato slices in the skillet
把洋蔥推至煎鍋邊緣,將馬鈴薯切片層層鋪上。讓它們不被打擾地煮約 5 分鐘。
Step 6: Stir the potatoes and onions
用刮鏟將馬鈴薯片與洋蔥拌勻,再煮 5 分鐘。
Step 7: Add garlic
加入蒜末,攪拌至香氣四溢,大約 30 秒。
Step 8: Pour in broth
倒入高湯,蓋上煎鍋。將火力調低至小火,燜煮 15 至 20 分鐘,直到馬鈴薯變軟。
Step 9: Garnish and serve the Southern smothered potatoes
在上桌前,以剩餘的鹽與黑胡椒作最後調味,並撒上香芹作裝飾。

What types of potatoes work best for this smothered potato recipe?
市面上有許多不同的馬鈴薯品種,但並非全部都適合這道燉煮馬鈴薯。此道最佳選擇是 Yukon Gold 馬鈴薯。它屬於蠟質型的馬鈴薯,煮熟後口感如奶油般細緻,變得柔軟且綿密。這種蠟質馬鈴薯的另一个優點是切片在烹調過程中能保持完整,不會散開或變成泥狀。皮膚也很薄,省去削皮這一步,讓整個步驟更為樸實。如果找不到 Yukon Gold,次佳選擇是紅皮馬鈴薯,它們雖不如前者濃滑,但仍屬於蠟質類,能在本道菜中良好保持形狀。
由於 Russet 馬鈴薯的澱粉含量較高,它們並非此食譜的最佳選擇,但在緊急情況下也能使用。需特別注意的是,煮煮過程中切片會明顯地變軟,成品會比較偏泥狀。你需要縮短烹煮時間,並在燉煮過程中更頻繁地檢查。請完全避開使用甜薯與指栗馬鈴薯,因為它們需要完全不同的烹調方法與時間。
Do I have to use a cast iron skillet to make the potatoes?
我偏好用鑄鐵煎鍋來做這道菜,原因是它能均勻且穩定地傳遞熱度,讓馬鈴薯表面能有扎實的上色。經過調味的鍋面也有助於形成酥脆的棕色焦糖屑,這些都會增添肉汁的豐富度。話雖如此,如果你沒有鑄鐵煎鍋,仍有其他合適的選擇。
一個大型不鏽鋼煎鍋也能勝任這道菜。為了防止馬鈴薯黏鍋,確保在加入任何材料之前鍋子已完全預熱。你可以用滴水測試鍋子表面:若水滴在鍋面滑過而不是立即蒸發,表示可以加入奶油與油。雖然不鏽鋼鍋在煮的過程中會有些黏,但使用薄型金屬刮鏟在翻動時能協助將馬鈴薯撬起。另一個不錯的選擇是有釉的鑄鐵煲( Dutch oven)。開始前加入奶油會較好,這樣在加熱 Dutch oven 之前就能避免損傷釉面;且攪拌與翻動時建議使用矽膠或木製工具,避免使用金屬工具,以保護表面。
