Fat Potato Fondant, a French Classic That Will Wow Your Guests!
Potato fondant, or Pommes De Terre Fondantes in French, is a classic technique where potatoes are browned on the ends before being slowly braised in butter and stock.
In this recipe, the potatoes are left in their natural shape instead of being cut into cylinders, giving them a rustic, homemade look. This approach saves time, reduces waste, and adds charm to the dish, while still delivering the same incredible results, crispy and golden on the outside, soft and creamy inside. The rich, buttery flavours with hints of stock make these melt-in-your-mouth potatoes perfect to serve alongside roasts, meats or any dish as a comforting and delicious side.
Perfect for thanksgiving or Christmas when you want something a little more special.
