Sibella's firecracker potatoes

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3 bay leaves

Directions

12 dried chile peppers -- I use : chile arbol

2 lb Yukon Gold or other small

: new potatoes

: salt and pepper

10 Cloves fresh garlic --

: unpeeled

½ c chile soaking water

½ c dry white wine

Rehydrate the chiles by pouring a cup or so of boiling water over them and allowing them to sit for 5 minutes. Drain off the soaking water but reserve

½ cup of it.

Leave tiny potatoes whole, halve or quarter others as you see fit.

Moisten them with water or cooking spray and toss liberally with salt and pepper and place into a covered baking dish. Add the garlic cloves, peppers, bay leaves, ½ cup of reserved chile-soaking water, and wine. Cover and bake at 400 F until the liquid is completely boiled away, at least 45 minutes. Uncover and broil to brown the tops of the topmost potatoes [optional].
