Braised Fingerling Potato Coins

These braised potato coins are a wonderfully elegant vegetarian side dish that transforms humble fingerling potatoes into a silky, indulgent treat. By simmering the finely sliced potatoes in a buttery emulsion under a parchment cartouche, they absorb all the rich flavours while maintaining a delicate texture. It is a refined yet simple technique that ensures every slice is perfectly seasoned and tender.

This versatile dish fits seamlessly into a Sunday roast menu or as a sophisticated accompaniment to grilled vegetables and fish. The addition of fresh flat-leaf parsley provides a bright, herbaceous finish that cuts through the richness of the butter. Whether you are hosting a formal dinner or looking for a comforting midweek accompaniment, these potatoes offer a delicious twist on a classic staple.
