CHEF JOHN'S FRENCH FRIES
I don't think most people realize that any decent French fry needs to be twice fried. The first frying in done at a lower temperature, which softens the potato and prepares the starchy surface for the second frying's crispification.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Cut the potatoes into long wedges about 1-inch thick. Toss the potatoes with the olive oil and Cajun seasoning.

Slowly add 1/4 cup water to the skillet and transfer the entire skillet to the oven.
- Continue to cook the potatoes, turning once, until the potatoes are tender and the outsides are crisped, about 20 more minutes. Meanwhile, mix the yogurt with the mustard and a pinch salt. Serve the potatoes warm with the mustard dipping sauce.

Steps:
- Arrange potato pieces evenly on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until just tender, about 4 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Cut potatoes into bite-size chunks.
- Heat butter and olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When butter melts and starts to turn brown, swirl the pan and add the potatoes. Shake pan to arrange in an even layer. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- As potatoes brown, toss them and keep turning them every few minutes until they are crusty and crispy-edged and a rich reddish-brown color, 10 to 12 minutes. If potatoes seem to be cooking too quickly, reduce heat to medium. Serve topped with chopped chives.

- Scrub and rinse potatoes under cool water then pat dry using a kitchen towel. You may peel them if you like, or leave the skins on for a more rustic dish. Cut potatoes into ¾" cubes. Try to be consistent when cubing them, so they cook evenly.
- Place a large non-stick (or cast iron) skillet over medium heat then add the butter and oil. Once the butter melts, place potatoes in an even layer on the bottom of the skillet. Cover and cook for 10 minutes, turning potatoes once or twice during the cooking process.
- Remove lid then season the potatoes with salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika. Stir to coat the potatoes evenly with seasonings then add onions on top of potatoes. Replace lid for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove lid and let potatoes cook uncovered, until tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. This may take an additional 10–15 minutes depending on how crispy you like your home fries. Remove from heat, taste for seasoning and serve while they are nice and hot. Enjoy!
