I’ve been making these potatoes since my daughter was very young. She loved them so much that they were a regular side dish on most nights.
Working in a diner, I serve my Home-style Potatoes with eggs and bacon all the time. People love their potatoes for breakfast. Imagine having them with dinner. Let me show you how I make my Homestyle Fried Potatoes.
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 30 to 35 minutes
Total Time: 55 minutes
Yields: 6 servings
Equipment: 1 (12-inch) sautépan, chef’s knife, cutting board
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
5 tablespoons of butter, unsalted
1 large red onion, finely-diced
6 cups of red potatoes, 1/2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
1/2 cup multi-colored mini sweet bell peppers, finely-diced
1 1/2 tablespoons Kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons of black pepper, freshly-ground
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons of Italian flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
Instructions:
In a large sauté pan, preheated on medium heat, add olive oil and diced red onions. Sprinkle with 1/2 tablespoon of the Kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon of the fresh ground black pepper, and garlic powder. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the onions have softened. Add the freshly minced garlic, and cook for 1 minute. Next, add 2 1/2 tablespoons of butter, and stir to combine until the butter has melted completely.
Reduce the heat down to medium-low, add the remaining butter, and allow it to melt. Add the diced red potatoes, diced sweet bell peppers, and dried oregano. Using a flat spatula, gently toss the potatoes to coat them evenly. Allow the potatoes to cook for 5 minutes before turning them over. Continue cooking over medium-low heat for an additional 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally until the potatoes are lightly golden brown, cooked through, and tender. Turn the heat off, add the Italian flat-leaf parsley, and toss.
Serve hot.
There you have it, my Homestyle Fried Potatoes.
