Ham Hock with Roasted Potatoes (Jarret听de听Porc et听pommes de terres听r么ties)

听

Ingredients:

One ham hock, garlic, bay leaves, thyme, olive oil, salt, pepper, baby potatoes.

Instructions:听
  1. Prepare and organize your ingredients.
  2. To infuse the ham hock with a rich flavor, marinate it for two to three hours in a mix of olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme, bay leaves and finely chopped garlic.
  3. Wash the potatoes and cut them in half lengthwise. One by one, dip them in the marinade.
  4. Set your potatoes to roast in the oven at 320 degrees Fahrenheit (160 degrees Celsius) for 30 minutes. Once the potatoes are golden, test their consistency with a fork. A fully cooked potato can be pierced with no resistance.
  5. Remove your potatoes and preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Roast the ham hock for one hour. At regular intervals, baste the ham with leftover marinade to keep it from drying out.
  6. Reduce the temperature to 300 degrees Fahrenheit (150 degrees Celsius) and let the ham roast for another hour.
  7. Ready to serve. Bon app茅tit!
