Home Fried Potatoes

Author: Dorothy Hurtley · Date: September 30, 2007

A little bit of a twist to an old favorite of mine.

Peel and Cube:

• 4 cups of potatoes

In a fairly large pot bring to a boil:

• 2 quarts of water
• 1 teaspoon salt
  When water comes to a boil add potatoes. Bring back to a boil and drain potatoes.

In large frying pan heat:

• 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil

Saute until soft:

• 1/2 cup chopped onions( or up to two cups if you like onions)
• 2 tablespoons of minced garlic

Stir in:

• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika

Add potatoes and continue to saute until potatoes are soft and lightly browned. If potatoes stick to the pan then add a little water.
