Mamas Country Fried Potatoes Recipes
MOM'S FRIED POTATOES
Folks around here still say that my mom made the best fried potatoes around. I have to agree and once she showed me how to make them, I never forgot, nor do I ever mess with her recipe much. And this particular recipe will give NEW CHEFS a jump start on this, often hazardous, endeavor. These potatoes are flavorful, about 1/3 of them turn out brown and crisp, and, they're never soggy. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have for 50 years.

Steps:
- Peel, and then slice the potatoes twice the thickness of a quarter.
- In a large bowl, place the potatoes and the sliced onions in plenty of cold tap water as to cover them -- allow them to soak for an hour.
- In a large no-stick skillet (or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet), add the shortening and allow it to get hot over medium-high heat.
- Drain the potatoes/onion and pat them dry some with paper towels. Drips of water will cause the hot oil to pop out on you. Carefully add the potatoes/onions to the hot shortening, spreading them out in the skillet.
- DO NOT TURN OR STIR THE POTATOES FOR THE NEXT 10-12 MINUTES! Go ahead and add the seasonings after putting the potatoes in the skillet. Fry mostly covered for the first 10-12 minutes but just crack the lid off to the side a bit as to allow steam to escape.
- After the time has elapsed, use a spatula to peek at the bottom layer and if they are brown and crispy, go ahead and turn the potatoes ONE TIME. Finish frying UNCOVERED for about 10 more minutes.
- Transfer them to a serving plate that has a couple of paper towels on it.
- Serve with hot biscuits and/or brown soup beans. These potatoes are also great with fried eggs.
- NOTE: I make sandwiches out of leftover potatoes that have been in the fridge.
