GRANNY'S FRIED POTATO SLICES



Granny's Fried Potato Slices image

I like this recipe because it is fairly easy to make, is quick to cook and inexpensive to make. I got the recipe from my father's mother when she was alive many years ago and she got it off of a lady she knew during the Great Depression of the 1930's. One tip I would like to make is to always make sure when cooking this recipe to have the cooking oil not only cover the top of the slices but underneath the slices as well in the deepest frying pan you have or deep fryer that you can also use. If you or your family like french fries a lot, then I am sure you will these, they are tasty but I am afraid addictive like french fries and fattening but enjoy them anyway!

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, are best for frying, as they hold their shape better than starchy potatoes like Russets.
  • Slice the potatoes evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly. Use a sharp knife or a mandoline to get uniform slices.
  • Soak the potato slices in water: This will help to remove excess starch and prevent the potatoes from sticking together.
  • Dry the potato slices thoroughly: This will help them to crisp up in the oil.
  • Use a large skillet or griddle: This will give the potatoes plenty of room to spread out and cook evenly.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat: This will help to create a crispy crust on the potatoes.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: Cook the potatoes in batches if necessary, to avoid overcrowding and steaming.
  • Flip the potatoes halfway through cooking: This will ensure that they cook evenly on both sides.
  • Season the potatoes with salt and pepper: You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to taste.
  • Serve the potatoes hot: Fried potato slices are best enjoyed fresh out of the pan.

Conclusion:

Granny's Fried Potato Slices are a classic comfort food that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages.
