Roasted Balsamic Potatoes
Patate al Forno con Aceto Balsamico ~ A vegetable dish that is great with grilled sausages, or a nice roasted chicken or breast of veal. This is an easy recipe that has a complex, unique flavor that is addictive. Do not use an expensive aged balsamic for this recipe, as a basic inexpensive grocery store brand will work just fine.
After creating this recipe once, your family will be asking for it repeatedly! You can either use a smaller pan and pile the potato pieces on top of each other which will keep them tender and moist, or spread them out a bit in a larger pan for baking which will allow the top to crisp while underneath the bottom stays moist. Both methods are delicious!
Buon Appetito!
