Mamas Country Fried Potatoes Food

MAMA'S BAKED FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a large, rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, combine the potatoes and olive oil and toss to coat. In a medium bowl, mix together the Parmesan, parsley, salt, pepper, garlic powder and cayenne until fully combined.
• Sprinkle the parsley mixture on the potatoes and gently toss to evenly coat. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and bake the potatoes, flipping them with a spatula every 10 minutes to prevent sticking, until golden brown, about 45 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.

COUNTRY FRIED POTATOES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Slice or dice the cooked, cooled potatoes into bite-sized pieces; set aside.
• Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil or shortening to the hot skillet.
• When the oil is hot, add the potatoes, spreading into a single layer. Cook without stirring or turning until the potatoes are golden brown on one side.
• Turn them over and brown on the other side.
• Sprinkle the potatoes with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve hot.

COUNTRY STYLE FRIED POTATOES

MOM'S FRIED POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel, and then slice the potatoes twice the thickness of a quarter.
• In a large bowl, place the potatoes and the sliced onions in plenty of cold tap water as to cover them -- allow them to soak for an hour.
• In a large no-stick skillet (or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet), add the shortening and allow it to get hot over medium-high heat.
• Drain the potatoes/onion and pat them dry some with paper towels. Drips of water will cause the hot oil to pop out on you. Carefully add the potatoes/onions to the hot shortening, spreading them out in the skillet.
• DO NOT TURN OR STIR THE POTATOES FOR THE NEXT 10-12 MINUTES! Go ahead and add the seasonings after putting the potatoes in the skillet. Fry mostly covered for the first 10-12 minutes but just crack the lid off to the side a bit as to allow steam to escape.
• After the time has elapsed, use a spatula to peek at the bottom layer and if they are brown and crispy, go ahead and turn the potatoes ONE TIME. Finish frying UNCOVERED for about 10 more minutes.
• Transfer them to a serving plate that has a couple of paper towels on it.
• Serve with hot biscuits and/or brown soup beans. These potatoes are also great with fried eggs.
• NOTE: I make sandwiches out of leftover potatoes that have been in the fridge.
