Torn Potatoes of Many Colours With Chilli-Lime Butter

Ingredients for Torn Potatoes of Many Colours With Chilli-Lime Butter

• 1 serrano chilli, coarsely chopped, seeds removed if desired

• 2 cups coriander leaves with tender stems (about 1 bunch)

• 230g (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature

• 2 teaspoons finely grated lime zest

• 2 teaspoons kosher salt

• 2.3kg potatoes of mixed colours and similar sizes (such as sweet, purple sweet, russet, and/or Yukon Gold), scrubbed

• 350ml pomegranate arils (from 2 pomegranates)

• Lime wedges and flaky sea salt (for serving)

Pulse chilli and coriander in a food processor until finely chopped. Add butter, lime zest, and kosher salt and pulse until smooth. Transfer to a sheet of parchment paper and roll into a 6"-long log. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours and up to 3 days.

Preheat oven to 191°C. Arrange potatoes in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet and cover tightly with foil. Roast 40 minutes. Remove foil (save for later!), turn potatoes, and continue to roast, uncovered, until largest potato is very tender when pierced with a paring knife or fork, 20–30 minutes.

Unwrap chilli-lime butter and thinly slice crosswise. Using two forks, tear potatoes (including skins) into 3"–4" pieces. Transfer to a large (preferably warmed) platter. Using your hands, crumble and scatter butter over potatoes (yes, use all of the butter). Cover with reserved foil and let sit until butter is mostly melted, 3–4 minutes. Top with pomegranate arils, squeeze lime juice over, and sprinkle with sea salt.
