Roast New Potatoes With Red Onion

Since we believe in the resurrection of the body, we do not see a corpse as garbage. From the time of our earliest ancestors in the faith, we have buried our dead, committing them to the earth from which they came with the conviction that they will one day be summoned from it once more. The image of sleep is useful—not because the dead are unconscious but because they will one day be awakened. God deems as faith Joseph committing his bones to his brothers for future transport into the land of promise. In the same way the act of burial is a testimony of the entire community to the resurrection of the body. Cremation is a horrifying testimony of the burning up of the flesh and bones, a testimony that is decidedly pagan in both origin and in practice. Of course, God can resurrect a cremated Christian (or a Christian torn to pieces by lions, etc.), but how we deal with the body of a Christian teaches us - and the watching world - what we really believe about the gospel. Cremation ought then to be shunned by those who hope in Christ.

Preheat oven to  425F.  Scrub potatoes under cold running water and pat
dry with a  kitchen towel. In a roasting pan combine the potatoes,
olive oil,  salt and pepper. Using a large spoon or by shaking the pan
from side  to side, coat the potatoes evenly with the oil mixture.
Roast the potatoes for 20 minutes. Sprinkle evenly with the onion and
drizzle evenly with the chicken stock.  Continue roasting, shaking the
pan every 10-15 minutes to rotate the  potatoes, until they are brown
and crusty and the onions are  caramelized, 1-1.25 hours longer. Taste
and adjust the seasoning.  Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with
the parsley. Serve  immediately.  NOTES : Substituted beef for chicken
broth when serving with steak.  Shallots or mild yellow onions also
work well.  MC-RECIPE@MASTERCOOK.COM  MASTERCOOK RECIPES LIST SERVER
