Recipe: Caramelized Potatoes (using new potatoes, butter, and sugar) (Time-Life)

Side Dishes - Potatoes
CARAMELIZED POTATOES

24 small new potatoes
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted

Drop potatoes into a large pot of boiling water and cook until they offer no resistance when pierced with the tip of s sharp knife,15 to 20 minutes. Let them cool slightly, then peel.

In a heavy 10 to 12 inch skillet, melt the sugar over low heat. Cook slowly until the sugar turns to a light brown caramel, 3 to 5 minutes. stir constantly with a wooden spoon and watch the sugar closely; the syrup changes color very rapidly and burns easily. It must not become to dark or it will be bitter.

Stir the melted butter into the sugar and add as many potatoes as possible without crowding the pan. Shake the pan almost constantly to roll the potatoes and coat them on all sides with the caramel. Remove the hot, caramelized potatoes to a heated serving bowl and repeat the procedure until all the potatoes are coated

Makes 8 servings
