Boiled potatoes pan-finished with onion, paprika and parsley in sunflower oil.
About Cartofi Taranesti
Laura Laurențiu's Transylvanian cartofi țărănești follows the fasting-day potatoes she remembers from her grandmother's table. Onion, sweet paprika and parsley season the potatoes in sunflower oil.
The potatoes are first boiled in their skins, then peeled and cut into large pieces. They join softened onion in the pan, where gentle mixing keeps the pieces from breaking apart.
Paprika colours the potatoes near the end of cooking, followed by chopped parsley. The dish can accompany a meal or stand on its own with the roast-pepper salad Laurențiu recalls from family fasting days.
