Potatoes for michelle

My sister in law an i were having coffee the other day and we happened to talk about food like we always end up doing. We were talking about are fried potatoes and how to get them crispy WITHOUT cooking them to the bottom of the pan at the same time. I FOUND IT! well... ok so my husband has been telling me forever how but did i listen.. no!

ITS BUTTER!

haha ok michelle here is my potato recipe made crispy~

what you need:

Potatoes cubed small ( we use 6 med potatoes for are family of 5 )
Sweet onion ( i use a slice off the onion and dice it, i still dont like TO much onion but the flavor of the sweet onion is great!) optional
1/2 a red pepper ( if im going all out on them i use this otherwise for most dinners i skip the pepper) optional
3 slices of bacon ( if your haveing bacon with dinner just cook a few strips in the potatoes ) again optional
salt
pepper
seasoning salt
evoo ( extra virgin oil) once around the pan
2 tablespoons butter

I know there are lots of optionals on this list and they come out wonderfull with just the potatoes and seasonings, if you have the stuff and want to kick it up an notch ( I LOVE YOU EMERIL! ) then you can use any of the optional singling or together.

what to do:

Now turn your pan on med and do once around with the evoo.
Now add the cubed potatoes
Now add your salt, pepper and seasoning salt and mix
( if using bacon, red peppers or onion put in now)
Now add your butter and mix it all up well
Now cover and walk away... YOU HEARD ME WALK AWAY! :)
Now 10 minutes later go back and flip and check tenderness and spices. If they are tender like you want them do not put the top back on because we don't need the steam, other wise cover and check in about 5 minutes...then another and so on until you reach your tender point put the lid in the sink.
Now did you taste? need more salt? pepper? do that now
Now let cook it another 10 min and flip once then cook until you get the crisp level you want. at this point they are done but you are just browning to taste.

Now your ready to dig in! I hope they come out as good for you as they did for me!
