PERFECT FRIED POTATOES



Perfect Fried Potatoes image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 pounds small Yukon gold potatoes, quartered
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon flaked sea salt
2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
Vegetable oil, for frying
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1/4 cup sliced garlic

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a large pot of salted water over medium-high heat, bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cook until just fork-tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a baking sheet. Let rest for 10 minutes; this will allow the potatoes to steam and release excess moisture.
  • In a small bowl, mix the sea salt, pepper, smoked paprika, cayenne and onion powder.
  • Fill a large Dutch oven with 2 inches of oil and heat over medium heat to 375 degrees F. Carefully add half the potatoes and fry until golden brown and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Right before removing the potatoes, add a sprig of rosemary and half the sliced garlic to the oil and cook for 15 seconds. With a fine-mesh strainer, remove the batch to a medium bowl. Toss with half of the seasoning mix, then transfer to a paper towel-line baking sheet to drain. Repeat with the remaining potatoes, rosemary, garlic and seasoning mix.

SPICED FRIED POTATOES



Spiced Fried Potatoes image

Almost utterly changed from a recipe in "Leaves from the Inn of the Last Home". The recipe originated in the "Chronicles" trilogy, by M. Weis and T. Hickman. The original recipe made by fans called for only cayenne. A recent book mentioned a garlic scent. This version is GOOD. I loved it. Everyone who entered the house loved the smell. I used about 2 tbsp jar garlic, and estimated amounts on the other spices. This does take a good while to fry, so if you use it in a meal, make it first. In my experience, with a 1.5" layer of potatoes, it takes a bit more than half an hour to fry them. It takes much longer to fry them if you don't boil first. I also tend to use quite a bit of pepper, usually a mix of cayenne and habanero. The servings depend on how good they smell. I can eat the whole recipe with no problem, though they are an excellent side dish. Please don't forget to adjust the spices to your taste. Especially the garlic.

Time 1h10m

Yield 1-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 medium potatoes
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1/2 cup butter (margarine works, or vegetable oil for a totally vegetarian dish)
1 -4 clove garlic, minced (to taste- I use a lot)
1 teaspoon oregano
1 tablespoon basil
1 1/2 teaspoons marjoram
1/2 teaspoon sage (or any other spices you like)
cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Boil the potatoes for about 30 minutes, let cool.
  • Cut into 1/2" cubes (or larger- I like to leave the skin on).
  • Melt the butter in a heavy skillet, at least 12", cast iron if you have it.
  • Add 1/4 of the potatoes, the spices, then the rest of the potatoes.
  • Turn them periodically, and fry til golden brown.
  • While the potatoes are frying, chop up the onion fairly small.
  • When the potatoes are done, add the onions and fry 10 minutes more.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Potatoes: Use firm, waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold, Red Bliss, or New Potatoes. These hold their shape well and have a creamy texture when fried.
  • Cut Potatoes Evenly: Cut potatoes into uniform sizes and shapes so they cook evenly. For fries, cut them into 1/2-inch thick strips. For wedges, cut them into 1-inch thick wedges.
  • Soak Potatoes in Water: Soaking potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before frying removes excess starch and helps them crisp up. Pat dry thoroughly before frying.
  • Use a Good Quality Oil: Choose an oil with a high smoke point, such as vegetable oil, canola oil, or peanut oil. Olive oil is not suitable for frying as it burns easily.
  • Fry Potatoes in Batches: Don't overcrowd the pan when frying potatoes. Fry them in batches so they have enough space to crisp up and cook evenly.
  • Season Potatoes Generously: Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and your desired spices before frying. This will enhance their flavor and make them more delicious.

Conclusion:

Frying potatoes is an easy and delicious way to enjoy this versatile vegetable. With the right technique and a flavorful spice mix, you can create crispy, golden brown potatoes that are perfect for any occasion. Experiment with different spice combinations to find your favorite flavor profile. Whether you prefer a classic blend of garlic and paprika or something more adventurous like chili powder and cumin, there's a spice mix out there to suit every taste. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish or snack, give fried potatoes a try. You won't be disappointed!
