Serves 8

Introduction

Small potatoes add an appealing look and flavor to the flank steak dinner, and provide the basis for flank steak salad another day.

Ingredients

4 Tbsp. (½ stick) unsalted butter
1 Tbsp. curry powder
32 small red or white new potatoes, about 1½ inches in diameter (about 3⅓ pounds), scrubbed
~ Salt to taste

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large ovenproof skillet or sauté pan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Stir the curry powder into the butter and cook for about 30 seconds. Add the potatoes and a sprinkling of salt. Cook for about 3 minutes, swirling the pan to turn the potatoes and coat them with curry butter, or turn them with tongs if necessary. Transfer the pan to the oven and roast, uncovered, until a cake tester or toothpick inserted in a potato slides in without resistance, about 30 minutes.
  2. Set aside 16 potatoes to cool and serve the rest. Wrap the reserved potatoes and refrigerate for up to 7 days.
