Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

31/2 lb russet potatoes
1/2 tsp baking soda
3 Tbsp butter, cut into pieces
1 pinch salt and pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper
3 Tbsp vegitable oil
2 large onions, cut into ½-inch dice
3 Tbsp minced fresh chives

Steps:

  • 1. Instructions 1. Adjust oven rack to lowest position, place rimmed baking sheet on rack, and heat oven to 500 degrees.
  • 2. 2. Bring 10 cups water to boil in Dutch oven over high heat. Add potatoes and baking soda. Return to boil and cook for 1 minute. Drain potatoes. Return potatoes to Dutch oven and place over low heat. Cook, shaking pot occasionally, until any surface moisture has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Add butter, 1½ teaspoons salt, and cayenne; mix with rubber spatula until potatoes are coated with thick, starchy paste, about 30 seconds
  • 3. 3. Remove baking sheet from oven and drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil. Transfer potatoes to baking sheet and spread into even layer. Roast for 15 minutes. While potatoes roast, combine onions, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and ½ teaspoon salt in bowl.
  • 4. 4. Remove baking sheet from oven. Using thin, sharp metal spatula, scrape and turn potatoes. Clear about 8 by 5-inch space in center of baking sheet and add onion mixture. Roast for 15 minutes.
  • 5. 5. Scrape and turn again, mixing onions into potatoes. Continue to roast until potatoes are well browned and onions are softened and beginning to brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in chives and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

These home fries were way too greasy for my liking. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my home fries didn't turn out crispy at all. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These home fries were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

I'm not a big fan of home fries, but these were actually really good. The seasoning was perfect, and they were cooked just right.

These home fries are a great way to use up leftover potatoes. I always have a few potatoes left over after I make mashed potatoes, and these are a great way to use them up.

I made these home fries for breakfast this morning, and they were delicious! I served them with eggs and bacon, and it was a perfect meal.

These were so good! I added a little bit of garlic powder and onion powder to the seasoning, and they were perfect.

These home fries were a hit with my family! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the seasoning was perfect.
