Southernfriedpotatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Fry potato chunks in hot oil in a 9- or 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat 12 minutes, turning often.
• Add onion, and cook 5 more minutes. Remove mixture to a serving bowl, using a slotted spoon.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• This is rustic cooking at its best. Leave the skins on the potatoes, if you'd prefer. They'll fry crispy brown and save you a step, too.
• A cast iron skillet is an inexpensive investment. Foods cooked in it absorb iron, which will increase the amount of iron you consume.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large pot of salted water over medium-high heat, bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cook until just fork-tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a baking sheet. Let rest for 10 minutes; this will allow the potatoes to steam and release excess moisture.
• In a small bowl, mix the sea salt, pepper, smoked paprika, cayenne and onion powder.
• Fill a large Dutch oven with 2 inches of oil and heat over medium heat to 375 degrees F. Carefully add half the potatoes and fry until golden brown and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Right before removing the potatoes, add a sprig of rosemary and half the sliced garlic to the oil and cook for 15 seconds. With a fine-mesh strainer, remove the batch to a medium bowl. Toss with half of the seasoning mix, then transfer to a paper towel-line baking sheet to drain. Repeat with the remaining potatoes, rosemary, garlic and seasoning mix.

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and cut into sticks about 1/2" thick and 4" long.
• Drop them into a bowl of cold water immediately after cutting to prevent discoloration.
• Pour 3" of oil into a deep fryer and heat to 350.
• Meanwhile, drain the potatoes and pat with paper towels until dry.
• Add the potatoes to the hot oil in batches that allow the potatoes to fry in a single layer (not too many at a time).
• Fry for about 5 minutes, or until they just turn brown.
• Remove them from the oil and place on paper towels to drain.
• Continue cooking each batch until they are all fried.
• Be sure to bring the temperature of the oil back up between batches.
• Transfer the potatoes to a baking sheet, in a single layer, and place in the freezer for one hour.
• Process the corn flakes and panko in a blender or food processor until fine.
• Pour into a shallow bowl.
• Combine the flour, salt and cayenne in a second shallow bowl.
• In a third bowl, lightly beat the eggs.
• Roll the partially frozen potato sticks in the flour, then dip them in the eggs, shaking off the excess, and then roll in the cornflake mixture.
• Repeat this process a second time, and place each fry in a single layer on a baking sheet.
• Heat the oil to 375.
• Fry the potatoes in batches for 3- 4 minutes until golden brown.
• Remove and drain on paper towels.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oil and butter in a skillet. Add the onions and cook until soft and lightly browned. Remove the onions from the pan and reserve.
• Slice the potatoes into 1/4 inch slices. Add them to the hot pan and brown on both sides.
• Return the onion to the pan, toss and season. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Put the butter in a pan (I use a stick free, the butter is for taste) and melt.
• Add potatoes, and turn over every few minutes until brown. Not all need to be brown, but make sure they are cooked through. Usually takes about 15 minutes.
• Add salt and pepper sometime during frying time, to taste.

Steps:

• Fry the bacon in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned and crisp. Remove from the pan, and add the potatoes and onions to the bacon drippings. Season with garlic pepper. Reduce the heat to medium, and cook the potatoes for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender and browned. Crumble bacon over the top before serving.

Steps:

• In a large cast iron skillet, heat shortening over medium-high heat. Add potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are golden brown. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika. Serve hot.
