How to make France’s fanciest potato… Pommes Anna

Whoever Anna is, she is one lucky lady to have this potato named after her. This French potato dish is delicious layers of potato and butter, arranged so beautifully and deliciously that you might even feel bad eating them.
This is one of my favourite potato dishes ever (well they all kinda are) but I can’t wait for you to try it at home and enjoy some French spud deliciousness for yourself.
Here’s the written instructions and recipe: www.poppycooks... here it is!

I remember sending my mum to get me guinea fowl for my home ec class. Used to drive her nuts. Not the easiest to find in late 80s. Another great video Poppy!

[@poppycooks]

Haha, the things we’d put our mothers through in the name of Food Tech 😅

[@tsman2709]

I don’t know how I started watching your channel, but I’m glad I found you. Cheers from Buenos Aires!

[@dougcargill6730]

I never knew I needed these in my life. Thank you Poppy, for showing me the way to Potato Nirvana.

[@poppycooks]

Enjoy!

[@morgellonsdirect513]

hahaha...you are bloody hilarious. Most fun I've had watching cooking videos in ages. You remind me a lot of a young Drew Barrimore.

[@tracya6702]

that's one beautiful pommes anna!

[@poppycooks]

It’s the beauty of the spud world, for sure

[@gigteevee6118]

A work of art ❤ Potato Art is king!

[@amarenee2020]

I found you from one of your appearances on Sorted! And so glad I did!

[@spritals]

Ditto! 😆

[@kristinireland-doll6562]

I add to mine thin slices of onion, layered in.

[@trevorgreen7324]

Defo onion and garlic, and tiny splash of wine.

[@poppycooks]

Delicious! I’ve also done a grate of parmesan too

[@markvincent5241]

Another cracking job and you're great humour. Keep up the great work.

[@poppycooks]

Thank you Mark, glad you enjoyed it!

[@doj456]

[@poppycooks]

Welcome to the party!

[@sosueme3778]

[@babawawa1953]

It’s gorgeous! I don’t have a a proper pan. Sad. But it looks so delicious.

[@TheJeanGenius]

Delicious! ❤

[@abbey319]

Informative, clear, and very funny! Lovely pommes anna.

[@padders1068]

Thanks Poppy, that looked amazing and I'm sure it tasted even better. One to add to my must try list! 🙂😋😎❤

[@Hudson316]

“Oven glove please” close enough

[@rickmoore]

I love the potato apron, so appropriate. And BTW I think you remind me (look like anyway) a younger Drew Barrymore!

[@WayneChamberlain23]

i'm going to have to give that one a try. looks amazing and tasty

[@zak3744]

Just Pan Haggerty when someone forgot to buy onions and cheese, innit. "Did you forget half the shopping again Pierre?" "Euuu... non, bien sur. It's just errr.. Pommes... Anna?" 😉

[@Mr_Blues13]

Tip melt the butter and brush it on each layer.

[@shenlun]

missing out as poppy gives British and american alternatives , but i live in Australia and we don't have those varieties here

[@manutdusa4488]

Ooh, what pan is that? As a novice who could burn water, I have tried your roast and mashed recipes and they were perfect! Can't wait to try this one. Thanks.

[@davidmilke4324]

Doing good to me, keep going girl.🎉

[@poppycooks]

Thanks bab

[@reecewoods1775]

Oh yuuuuuuuummmmmm

[@sgtshin]

Hey Poppy.. I have a trick for you. Just take a regular FORK, stick it in either end of the potato.. and peel away.. once all is done rotate and finish... about %50 quicker and totally hand safe... get your potato game in order!!!

[@poppycooks]

Wow will need to try this!

[@Isiahkan]

Potato ice cream when?

[@LamiaEssex]

Poppy......can you tell me what mandolin you use...have had a couple....and apart from losing my knuckles...cos of the relevant guard is not fool poof.....so help let me now..... hugs have a great weekend.....

[@77BenWells]

What happened to the down and back up method? And the potato peeling method too 😂😂

[@joluoneonejoly768]

Which pan no handle you are to use....?

[@whiterabit]

❤❤❤

[@shezanm]

That and a bottle of bubbles and you're set.

[@Stevefoster80]

Is that hippo for biscuits ? Very cool looking

[@poppycooks]

No just a hippo for love

[@Stevefoster80]

@@poppycooksit’s funky 😁

[@Karma-qt4ji]

I don't peel potatoes like that at all. I hold the potato in the fingers of my weak hand and put the thumb of my strong hand underneath, drawing the peeler down to my thumb in a whittling style motion. I find it gives me more control and is faster for me. Not a chef, but I did do national service and one day was made to peel 4 sacks of potatoes as punishment lol. That was in 1987 and my fingers still hurt 🤣

[@devttyUSB0]

Lovely long YT content, this looks like a lot of work though! :')

[@andymcintyre1623]

It says 80g of butter in your recipe, how much did you actually put in that pan as that looked like a load more?

[@TheEricBooth]

Could you add a bit of cheese between the layers?

[@georgeprout42]

No, the planet will stop turning, Mount Everest will invert and the sea will freeze. Of course you can. It's no longer the same recipe, it's now you cooking. Add or exclude what you want. If it tastes good to you then make a note, and feel free to deviate more next time if you choose. If not then probably don't do it again.

[@MrRexfactor]

I might add a layer of cheese and pepperoni on top to make it a pizza. In any case, as my brother in law found out and my future wife is going to find out. In this family, if a recipe calls for taters, double it. Even if that means making a side dish that is only taters.

[@Motivation5558-m6b]

You must be a big fan of potatoes 😅😂

[@poppycooks]

How did you know?!

[@Motivation5558-m6b]

@@poppycooks even your pic shows, you stand behind the potatoes

[@septimus1306]

How much time is spent before each video deciding today's double entendre ?

[@katecapek3116]

Cheese melted on top would be deadly.

[@jonathanbranum8976]

peeling potato...huh??? why...just rinse with an abrassive pad lightly, prrrrfect...:)) plus all those nutrients and flavour, how dare you--hehehe... ;p

[@jstaffordii]

Time to irritate the French chef. Put ketchup on that fried potato pie.

[@davidcorless5581]

POPPY DO YOU EVER COOK ANYTHING OTHER THAN POTATOES , HOW ABOUT POTATO SOUP .

[@poppycooks]

NO I ONLY LIVE BREATHE POTATO

[@Hudson316]

So would be quite fine if you were stuck in the movie The Martian

[@avfc1985]

Will you only cook potatoes? Be good to see you mix things up a bit but do ya thing 👍

[@poppycooks]

I do cook other things but obviously this potato series will be… potatoes

[@avfc1985]

@poppycooks makes sense 😂 time to go buy some potatoes then 😂😋 keep up the good work 👍

[@Stevefoster80]

@@poppycookswe need regional potato dishes , faggots and mash and hotpot or a fancy good old bangers and mash

[@Equinoxious342]

What did you add to the hundreds of recipes for Pommes Anna already on YT? Literally nothing. Just stealing other peoples work for a living.

[@poppycooks]

@@Equinoxious342 thanks for your kind words, I will wipe my tears with the cash I’m making ❤️❤️❤️
