Fried Potatoes With Chilies Food

CRISPY ITALIAN FRIED POTATOES AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Fill a large bowl halfway with cold water. Peel the potatoes and place them in the water as you go, to prevent discoloration.
• Slice the potatoes thinly (1/8-1/4 inch thick) and place slices in the bowl of water, as you go. I recommend using a mandolin or a food processor with the slicing blade attachment. Or you can slice them by hand with a sharp knife.
• Lay an absorbent dish towel on the counter and have another one or two handy. Drain the sliced potato in a mesh strainer and dump them onto a towel. Pat and blot them dry. They will brown better if you get them nice and dry.
• Heat oil in a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over high heat, until hot but not smoking. Add the potato slices and immediately toss them until they're all coated with oil. Let the potatoes cook, undisturbed, for 3-5 minutes, or until the bottom pieces look brown around the edges. Mound the peppers on top and add a pinch or two of salt. Flip the potatoes over with a spatula, so some raw potatoes and peppers are on the bottom of the skillet. Leave them undisturbed for another 3-5 minutes, until they are nice and brown on the bottom. Continue to brown and toss potatoes for 5-10 minutes longer, until about half of them are crisp and brown and the rest are soft and creamy.
• Serve hot. Season, to taste, with salt.

COUNTRY FRIED POTATOES WITH HATCH CHILES

Steps:

• Place Hatch chiles directly on the grates of a gas stove over medium heat. Cook, flipping with tongs occasionally, until blackened and charred, about 5 minutes. Place in a sealed plastic bag and allow to cool, 7 to 8 minutes. Peel off charred skins, remove seeds, and slice chiles.
• Slice potato using a mandoline.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add potato slices and fry undisturbed until starting to brown and soften, 8 to 12 minutes. Add onion slices and chiles. Season with seasoned salt and black pepper. Stir to combine. Cook until onions are translucent and potatoes are fully softened and browned on the second side, 5 to 8 minutes.

• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium high heat. Add onion and green pepper. Cook, stirring often, until soft; about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Pour remaining 2 tablespoons of oil into the skillet and turn heat to medium-high. Add potato cubes, salt, paprika and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are browned; about 10 minutes. Stir in the onions, green peppers and parsley and cook for another minute. Serve hot.

FRIED POTATOES WITH CHILE SAUCE

• in a large heavy saucepan, warm the oil over medium heat. sprinkle in the breadcrumbs and brown briefly.
• add the garlic, oregano and chile.

• bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
• cook the sauce for 20-25 minutes.
• set aside. (the sauce can be made ahead. will keep refrigerated for 5 days and freezes well).

• in a large, heavy ovenproof skillet, warm the oil over medium high heat. add the onion and garlic and saute till the onion is translucent.
• stir in the potatoes, reduce the heat to medium, and fry until the potatoes are crisp and a little browned. (I like mine more than a little browned, but fix them the way you like.).
• pour the chile sauce over the potatoes and scatter the cheese over the top.
• place the potatoes under the broiler just long enough for the cheese to melt.
• serve immediately, topped with sour cream, green onions or cilantro if you wish.
