Mango-Peach Death Wings
by patiodaddio
The heat for these bad boys comes from a habanero BBQ seasoning, and they are slathered with a silky sweet and slightly tangy glaze of mango-peach pepper jelly and melted butter.

Chimichurri Sauce/Marinade
A quick and simple condiment that tastes wonderful served with any grilled meat, but it doubles as a marinade, too!

Easy Baked Fries
by foodismylife on July 14, 2009 in Potatoes, Sides
Recipe Description
Say “no” to fries from fast food chains! No deep-frying and no usage of yesterday’s oil – healthy and yummy nonetheless! And the recipe can be easily doubled!
Preparation Instructions
Peel the potato. Slice into 1cm strips and place the strips in a pot. Fill with hot water and boil for 5 minutes. The strips will still be hard.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius (425 F). Line a baking tray with aluminum paper and drizzle with olive oil. Place in the oven.
Drain the potatoes and return the potato strips back into the pot and stir constantly over low heat until the excess water has evaporated. This is very important to prevent the oil from splattering later on and injuring yourself. Place a lid on the pot and shake the pot – as vigorously as you want – to roughen the sides of the potato strips. Tumble the potatoes into the hot oil and stir to coat the potato in the oil.
Bake for 30 minutes to 45 minutes, turning the fries once during the course of baking. Drain on a kitchen paper and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
Ingredients
- 1 Large Potato
- Olive Oil
- Salt And Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Gnocchi au Fromage

This gnocchi au fromage (with cheese) uses store bought potato gnocchi. I cover them in a homemade cheese sauce, and then broil in the oven. The result is puffy dumplings coated in sinfully delicious cheese sauce.

Fat-free Sweet Potato Souffle
by CarolinaHeartStrings and filed in Potatoes, Sides
If you live in the Carolinas you are pretty much required to love sweet potatoes. And generally they’re pretty healthy but to make them really tasty, traditional cooking adds lots of sugar and butter. I wanted to keep the yum factor but reduce the unhealthy factor. Try this version below using a few substitutions, including pureed peaches.

Hi, Shoheiyun.
Your potatoes sound good.
I checked a conversion chart to see what temperature to use for us Fahrenheit cooks.
220 degrees Celsius is 428 degrees Fahrenheit.
That’s a hot oven!
I will try your fries.

Yum.
I didn’t add any pepper b/c I don’t usually like it on fries but I did do salt and Lawry’s Season Salt and it was a hit!

I made these this weekend and OMWord!! They were so yummy. Putting the fries back in the pot to evaporate the water was a brilliant suggestion. It made for such a nice crispy fry.

These are my new favorite fries!

Very very good! Easy and so yummy!

I made these tonight – very tasty! I would definitely recommend removing the skins – I didn’t, and they are not as yummy as on “fried” fries. I also cooked them for 30 minutes – next time I will probably only go 20. Make sure your strips are uniform in size.
I will make these again – thanks for sharing!!

Tackled these last night. They were AWESOME, and surprisingly easy. I was almost scared off by the boiling part, but it was easy enough, and worked well. By far the best oven fries ever made in my house; from scratch or from freezer bag (Oreida, etc). I added some seasoned salt and baked a bit longer to make them crunchy. Good stuff!
