  When ready to cook, set the temperature to 350℉ and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.

  350 ˚F / 177 ˚C

  Ingredients

  • 2 Pound tri-color baby potatoes

• Step 3

  Let stand at room temperature until cooled. Use your hand to slightly flatten the potatoes and break their skin a bit.

• Step 4

  Meanwhile, pour the oil 3-4” deep into a large, heavy Dutch oven or other deep pot and heat over medium-high heat to 400℉.

  Ingredients

  • As Needed peanut oil

• Step 5

  While the oil is heating, in a small bowl mix together the lemon zest and fleur de sel. Set aside.

  Ingredients

  • 1/2  lemon zest

  • 1 Tablespoon fleur de sel

• Step 6

  Fry the potatoes, in batches, if necessary, until evenly brown all over, about 3 minutes. Remove them with a spider or slotted spoon and place them directly into a large bowl. Adjust the heat as necessary between batches to return the temperature of the oil to 400℉.

• Step 7

  While the potatoes are still hot, add the red onion and season to taste with the lemon zest and fleur de sel mixture, kosher salt, Aleppo pepper, and black pepper. Toss gently to coat.

  Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon minced red onion

  • To Taste kosher salt

  • 1 Tablespoon Aleppo pepper

  • As Needed black pepper
