Potatoes are, hands down the most popular tuber however, we seldom we eat them fresh from the ground. They are typically stored for months in temperature-controlled environments so when fresh potatoes pop up here in Texas, there is much cause to celebrate. Also, when David Cater from Utility Research Garden near Austin strides in and offers us a basket of freshly harvested golden potatoes, it’s hard to say no.
This month, almost every farm from Plant-it-Forward to Animal Farm is offering up local potatoes so this is the time to make a trip to the Urban Harvest Farmer’s market and realize your potato dreams. Mashed, fried, roasted or curried, there is no wrong way to eat potatoes. Here is a recipe for pan roasted tiny potatoes cooked with ghee, onions and spices and topped with a gentle drop of whisked eggs. They are so good you won’t even need toast to go with it!
