HOME FRIES

There's nothing like a fresh batch of home fries! The ultimate comfort food, these home fries are like what you get at an old-fashioned diner, straight off the skillet. Use raw or cooked potatoes - the choice is yours!

Provided by Elise Bauer

Categories     Brunch     Side Dish     Breakfast     Quick and Easy     Breakfast     Potato

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

For home fries made with raw potatoes
2 large raw Russet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (about 1/8-inch thick)
1/2 of one large onion, or 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons or more of extra virgin olive oil
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
For home fries made with cooked potatoes
2 large Russet potatoes, quartered and boiled for 12 minutes in salted water until just cooked through, drained
1/2 of one large onion, or 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon of bacon fat (optional, omit for vegetarian version)
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil and add potatoes, onions, salt and pepper: Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium to large skillet on medium high heat until sizzling. Place a single layer of potato slices on the bottom of the pan. Add a light layer of sliced onions. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add another layer of potatoes, another layer of onion slices, sprinkle again with salt and pepper. Keep layering until you've used up your potatoes and onions.
  • Lower the heat and cover the pan: Lower the heat to medium and cover the pan. Let cook for about 10 minutes, until the potato layer at the bottom is nicely browned. You can move aside a little bit with a fork to see if the bottom edges are browned. You may need to reduce the heat a little as the potatoes cook so they brown and don't burn.
  • Flip the potatoes: Gently flip the potatoes over, a section of the pan at a time, so that the layer that was on the top is now on the bottom, and the browned potatoes are now on the top. Add another tablespoon of oil. The oil will help the browning. Cover and let cook for another 5-10 minutes, until the bottom layer is now browned.
  • Remove the lid: Once the bottom layer is browned, remove the lid of the pan and let continue to cook for 5 more minutes. This additional cooking will help the potatoes dry out just a little bit more. Serve immediately. Serves 2-4.
  • Heat the oil and sauté the onions: Cut the cooked potatoes into 1/2-inch slices. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium to large skillet on medium high heat until sizzling. Add sliced onions to pan and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add the potatoes, salt, pepper, and bacon fat: Add the potato pieces, spread out as much as possible along the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle generously with salt and freshly ground pepper. Cook until nicely browned on the bottom, without stirring (about 7-8 minutes). You may need to reduce the heat a little as the potatoes cook so they brown and don't burn. Add 1 tablespoon bacon fat, or more oil to the pan. Gently flip the potatoes and cook until the bottom of the flipped potatoes are nicely browned. Serve immediately.

Time 50m

Yield 6 side dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 russet potatoes (about 2 pounds), peeled and cut into a 3/4-inch pieces
Kosher salt
5 slices bacon (about 4 1/2 ounces)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, like soy, peanut, or corn
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves, optional
Pinch cayenne pepper, optional

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by about 2 inches. Season with salt. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer until just tender, about 6 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • Cook the bacon in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Pour all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon drippings into a small bowl and set aside. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Wipe out the skillet and return to medium-high heat. Heat the remaining bacon fat and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in the skillet. Add the potatoes, season with salt and pepper to taste, and arrange in a single layer. Cook, without stirring, until well browned on 1 side, about 4 minutes. Using a spatula, turn the potatoes in small sections, and continue cooking, turning occasionally, about 6 minutes or until well browned. Stir in the onions, heat through, and sprinkle with the parsley and cayenne, if desired. Transfer to a warm platter and crumble the bacon on top, serve. Copyright 2005 Television Food Network, G.P.

HOME FRIES



Home Fries image

When I bake potatoes I make extra for home fries, I bake them in foil so they will be soft on the outside. Make sure to use plenty of butter when making these and fry them slowly and resist the temptation to flip them constantly, you want them to brown but not burn. Baking time is not included in prep. time.
