MOM'S BROWN POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large, heavy saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Deep fry the potatoes until golden brown. As you remove the potatoes from the oil, sprinkle them generously with garlic salt and parsley.

BROWN BUTTER MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, rinse in cold water and cut into fourths. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the butter to a saucepan over medium heat. Allow the butter to brown, 2 to 3 minutes, being careful not to burn it. Swirl the pan as you go, stopping when the solids turn medium to deep golden brown.
• Drain the potatoes, then return them to the pot. With the burner on low heat, mash the potatoes with a potato masher; the more steam that's released while you mash, the better. Mash for about 5 minutes. Turn off the burner.
• Add the cream cheese, half-and-half, cream, some salt and pepper and three-quarters of the brown butter to the pot and stir to combine. If the mixture needs thinning, add some milk. Check the seasonings, adding salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle the remaining brown butter over the top. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.

MOM'S FRIED POTATOES

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.
