How do U make really good FRIED potatoes...?

Question

some people I know use boilded potatoes and then fry them
Other people slice them right into the pan.
Some fry with onions..some dont.
WHat is the BEST way.
(prefer people from the south..they are better cooks :)

Answer 1

I dont boil mine first, but instead of frying in butter, if i have it i fry them in bacon grease ( if i dont i use butter)..i know artey clogger for sure, but oh how good they taste...I peel them, slice them in think slices, put in a pan with bacon grease, some chopped onion, salt and pepper and fry on low heat so that the insides get done. If you like them crispy fry longer for a crisp, if you do not like them crispy they are ready when the insides are done....try them also sometime with some grated cheddar on top or some old fashioned pan chicken gravy...yummmmmm, thats southern cooking at its best, just ask me and paula deen..

3. Baked Parmesan Cottage Potatoes: Prepare as above, except arrange potatoes and onion in a thin layer in a greased 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Melt margarine or butter; drizzle over potatoes. Omit salt. Combine garlic powder, pepper, and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese; sprinkle over the potatoes. Bake in a 450 degree oven about 25 minutes or till browned.

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://biturl.im/aU7sI

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

Answer 6

Slice them in to a cast iron skillet while melting the butter and oil. I sue about 3/4 stick of butter and a shot of oil (1/8 cup maybe)
Cook them on medium heat and dont stir them.. give them time to brown and cook. Flip them, and do the same.. If the potatos arent tender then put a lid on them for a few minutes on low heat.

salt and pepper them to taste after you slice them in to the skillet. may add onion and peppers at ths time also.

Answer 7

I personally cut my potatoes into small cubes, like if you were going to make potato salad, that small. I cook mine starting from raw in an electric skillet until cooked. I add onions, garlic salt, pepper, and season all for flavor. They are so yummy.

Answer 8
