Caramelized Scandinavian Potatoes

SERVES

COOK TIME
10 Min

We all grew up with sugar-coated dreams and visions of dancing sugar plums. In some Scandinavian countries, the children are lucky 'cause they grow up eating sugar-coated potatoes! Sounds good to me!

What You'll Need

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) whole potatoes, drained and dried with paper towels

What to Do

  1. In a nonstick skillet, over medium-high heat, heat the sugar, water, and salt until the sugar has melted and the mixture forms a light brown syrup, about 4 minutes, stirring constantly.

  2. Reduce the heat to low, then add the potatoes, coating them with the syrup. Heat for about 6 minutes or until the potatoes are heated through and evenly coated, stirring constantly.

Notes

The syrup is very hot! Be careful when preparing and eating these. You may want to let them cool a bit before serving.
