Well, i was working in a Kitchen in Wales for the summer, and we made fondant every day.

I wanted to do it at home too, but then In noticed it's waste.

In a restaurantkitchen you can use it for mash, and at home i never know what to do, but it's up to yourself to decide if you wnat to make them lokking really good, or maybe do don't cut away that much.

[thehungryhollow]

These potatoes are BEAUTIFUL! Thank you for the great idea Steve! :)

[stevescooking]

@thehungryhollow Your very welcome and thank you ;)

[ian41bsu]

What about adding beurre manie to that stock/thyme for a sauce. Blasphemy? These "scalloped" potatoes look great, though. Could do a Coquille St. Jacques preparation also for a nice optical illusion type dish. Thanks.

[stevescooking]

@ian41bsu Yes..you could add a beurre manie to the sauce or a slurry...good idea and thanks for watching

Steve:)

[MsBurpy]

xoxo

[stevescooking]

@MsBurpy thank you so much....glad you like them

Steve:)

[TheKitchenWitch1]

Steve, you hit it out of the ballpark with this one. Thank you a million times over for an elegant recipe that I know is going to be amazing. I plan to make these over the weekend with a steak. Am also sharing with my foodie friends.

[stevescooking]

@TheKitchenWitch1 Thanks very much..you wont be disappointed....let me know how you got on.Steve:)

[tipnoyski]

waste of time and resources for something so simple.

[stevescooking]

@tipnoyski zzzzzzzzzz

[CelticPoison]

@stevescooking The extent of many viewers culinary prowess starts and stops at the McDonalds value menu, I wouldnt take comments like this to heart. Great stuff though, the end results looked terrific.

[stevescooking]

@CelticPoison You hit the nail on the head..:) VERY TRUE...I don't take it to heart...but it amazes me what some people say. :)...thank you

[mazdaman1980]

Can I say that you can cook the whole potato with no waste by cutting them in half and treating them exactly the same way. Scalloped in this manner is purely for presentation. And you can add the Rosemary much sooner too.

[starryknight]

Stumbled upon your video. From the thumbnail, I thought you were doing scallops. Beautiful technique.

[stevescooking]

@starryknight Thank you..yes they did look like scallops...thank you for yr comment

Steve;)

[wildshotsintheair]

Im going too try this.., looks realy good and im sure they taste amzing for a breakfast with eggs also as aside dish.

[stevescooking]

@wildshotsintheair You wont be disappointed..thanks:)

[254DEUS254]

I thought fondant went on cakes. I can't find anything on the definition being what you said. Please explain!

[stevescooking]

@254DEUS254 google :)

[TheKillcamMan]

all looked great, but if you boiled the fondant for about 5 mins first they would b even better

[stevescooking]

@TheKillcamMan Boil? you don't boil to make fondant potatoes.

[mritizwatitiz]

why is porn music playing on this vid?

[SMorrizz]

Though it was my first attempt to cook something of this sort, though the fire alarm went off, the things was f***cking tasty. Loved it. Thanks!

[stevescooking]

@SMorrizz Ha ha ...thanks man..glad you liked them..funny :)

[pannekoeken2]

use the remains to serve a mash with nutmeg alongside? yummy

[Carlos831530]

What is stock

[ammohead73]

Those looked great!!!

[stevescooking]

@ammohead73 thanks buddy

Steve:)

[DOX9500]

mmmm looks absolutely delish!

I will try it :3 I think this will go great with charcoal roasted lambchops :3

[newyorkangel1]

What is the overall cooking time for those? Pan + Oven?

[Auspex1980]

Great video. Very nice music Steve. Thanks for sharing.

[vlastos]

what a waste just to get that shape..not worth it

[stevescooking]

@vlastos And again.....n o t h i n g was wasted

[padf0ot]

@stevescooking why was nothing wasted if you cut like a huge part away without reusing it?

[stevescooking]

@padf0ot This is the last time im going to comment on these waste questions...just because i did not use it in the video does not mean i did not use it at all. For the last time, you can use it for mashed potatoes or hash-browns or a number of things. If you choose to throw the other pieces away that is really up to you.

[msesmeraldas1]

I love it!! awesome, thanks for your recipe.

[stevescooking]

@msesmeraldas1 Thanks for watching and your comment

Steve:)

[DonPauliani]

anyone else feel like this music is too sexy for the video?

[stevescooking]

@DonPauliani ha ha ha..thats funny :)

[penguinboi87]

what kinda stock is it?

[stevescooking]

@penguinboi87 chicken stock

[Cenotaff]

God damn, they look awesome!

What was the music mate? It sounds like a band called Nest. If you haven't heard them before check them out (not a plug, just similar stuff that you might like).

[stevescooking]

@Cenotaff Thanks buddy...the music is written & performed by myself....cheers for your comment pal

Steve

[Cenotaff]

@stevescooking

Awesome, you don't have any music for download by any chance? That sorta chilled/synth is tough to find!

[stevescooking]

@Cenotaff If you look on my main channel page you will see links to itunes & cd baby..thanks buddy

[tubeyoujim]

UMMMMMMM ME ANTOJE !!

[stevescooking]

@tubeyoujim grazie mile:)

[smilesmiles330]

im broke and been looking for more ways to cook my taters, and this looks great i can't wait to try it! Thanks man!

[stevescooking]

@smilesmiles330 Yeah it really doesn't cost that much to make...and they're really delicious...thanks for your comment buddy

Steve:)

[iGOON920]

@smilesmiles330 COOK MY TATERS

[3zib]

Looks delicious mate!

[stevescooking]

@3zib Thanks pal..I appreciate it

Steve:)

[chanjhf]

it actually looked better near the beginning.

[stevescooking]

@chanjhf But it tasted better at the end!!

[MarvinsKitchen]

Yum, I used to cook a similar accompaniment but with "Rounds" of butternut squash.

Orange juice, white wine, butter and plenty of salt. Then cooked in the oven. Once cooked, removed from the cooking juices and cool. Refrigerate to firm up, then roasted in a smoking pan with a little tyme. Served with a beautiful piece of Beef.

[Nymfebaby]

I feel stupid .. I was thinking " WHAT? 400 degrees?!" , but then i thought "aah, fahrenheit/celcius" :i giggle..

[stevescooking]

@Nymfebaby Ha ha..it happens...but thank you for watching :)

Steve

[Lin4Masses]

Steve, I hope you aren't ruining my art. I haven't even gotten to show all my friends :(

[stevescooking]

@Lin4Masses i would never do that..your a true artist :)

[andeegreen]

fondant = cooked in stock (fond), nothing to do with their own juices (which potatoes don't have) maybe you're confusing the term with confit?

Anyway, nicer fondant than Ramsay's video on here

[stevescooking]

@andeegreen Potatoes have juice... their juice is also used for natural remedies....Confit is preserving a meat in fat...

Thanks for your comment

steve

[Seyahhsod]

Its pretty and all but WHAT A WASTE of the rest of the potato.

[stevescooking]

@Seyahhsod Waste? i didn't waste them

[nintendoandsega1990]

@stevescooking I believe Chef Steve didn't waste the remaining potato. You can save it if you're planning to make mashed potatoes. Submerge the potato flesh with water so it won't discolor. Right? =D

[stevescooking]

@nintendoandsega1990 Your absolutely right..thank you for your comment :) 

[hevox]

Would you recommend serving a sauce with fondant potatoes? If yes, got any suggestions? :) Great video!

[stevescooking]

@hevox Yes, these potatoes go with anything really....you could do a nice red wine reduction sauce to go with some beef, Romesco sauce with just the potatoes to dip, a nice creamy parsley sauce to go with some nice white fish...etc. hope this helps

Thanks for watching

steve

[Saaaataan]

Also, can i ask, are you a British guy living in America? Noticed a bit of the accent, and 400 degrees oven, not 200! :o

[stevescooking]

@Saaaataan I sure am mate..been living in the U.S for about 6 years....thanks for the comments mate

Cheers

steve

[Saaaataan]

Dude this is a great tutorial, well presented, clear and the ambient (although slightly softcore porn) music in the background wasn't overly distracted. I cooked these for my family and girlfriend last night and they went down a treat, kudos to you mate!

[stevescooking]

@Saaaataan Thanks pal..glad it turned out great for you :)

[tavolo22]

originally, i thought it was a tight mashed which was molded with the pastry ring and then seared. nonetheless, they came out fine. thanks.

[stevescooking]

@tavolo22 Great and thanks for watching :)

Steve

[Lcs400]

i thought the song was

coming in the air tonight - phil collins

[stevescooking]

@Lcs400 ha ha I can see where you are coming from

[stevescooking]

@hugobossdb Cooking is all about presentation...its not arrogance its just the way it is. cheers

[stevescooking]

@hugobossdb Its just the way that you're taught in a professional kitchen..and I personally like this presentation of the potato...you can do whatever you want..I just chose to do it this way... that's it.

[nintendoandsega1990]

That fondant looks like a beautiful seared scallops! =D

[stevescooking]

@nintendoandsega1990 Yes they do..thanks for watching

[HALLSYSKITCHEN]

[fiend7777]

So...what do you do with the leftover potato?

[stevescooking]

@fiend7777 Anything you want...Boil them to make mashed potato (depending on how many potatoes your using)...you can roast them, make Galettes, Potato hash, Stews etc. :)

Thanks for watching
