These look very good. Recipe is from Simple and Delicious. Update 3/21/09: I've made these recently and I think I will use only half of the ranch dressing mix the next time because I felt it was a little too strong. I will leave the original recipe as is, though.

These potatoes are so darn good, you will want to make them often! I added bacon, but you could also add chopped onion while cooking the potatoes...both are great options! Enjoy!

Categories     Potatoes

Number Of Ingredients 7

7 medium potatoes, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1/4 c butter, cubed
8 oz sour cream
1 envelope ranch salad dressing mix
4 oz shredded cheddar
1 bag(s) bacon bits
1 small onion, chopped (add to potatoes when baking if you want, it is optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Place potatoes in a greased 11x7, dot with butter. Cover and bake at 325 degrees for 60-65 min or until tender. Combine sour cream and salad dressing mix; spoon over the potatoes. Sprinkle with bacon bits (the soft ones, not bacos). Sprinkle with cheese. Bake, uncovered for 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potato variety. Yukon Gold or russet potatoes are best for this recipe, as they hold their shape well and have a fluffy texture when cooked.
  • Cut the potatoes into uniform cubes. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Soak the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking. This will help remove excess starch and prevent the potatoes from sticking together.
  • Use a large skillet or Dutch oven for cooking the potatoes. This will give them plenty of room to brown and crisp.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet or Dutch oven. Cook the potatoes in batches if necessary.
  • Season the potatoes generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Cook the potatoes over medium-high heat until they are golden brown and crispy. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

These ranch potato cubes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and they are packed with flavor. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, and enjoy!
