SPICY CLASSIC HOME FRIES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add 2 tablespoons of salt and the potatoes, bring to a boil and cook, until just tender, about 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat until it begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook, stirring a few times, until soft and lightly golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove the onions to a plate.
• Add the remaining oil and the butter to the pan, increase the heat to high and heat until the butter has melted and the oil is sizzling. Add the potatoes and chile powder and season with salt and pepper and immediately press down into an even layer on the bottom on the pan, using a wide metal spatula. Cook, pressing down occasionally and not turning, until the potatoes on the bottom are golden brown and crusty, about 5 minutes. Turn the potatoes over, press down again and cook until the potatoes on the bottom are golden brown, about 5 minutes longer. Stir in the onions, season with more salt and pepper, transfer to a shallow bowl or a platter and garnish with green onion and cilantro.

CRISPY SPICY FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Slice potatoes into French fries, and place into cold water so they won't turn brown while you prepare the oil.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• While the oil is heating, sift the flour and spices into a large bowl.
• Gradually stir in enough water so that the mixture can be drizzled from a spoon.
• Dip potato slices into the batter one at a time, and place in the hot oil so they are not touching at first.
• The fries must be placed into the skillet one at a time, or they will clump together.
• Fry until golden brown and crispy.
• Remove and drain on paper towels.

QUICK & CRISPY HOME FRIES

Steps:

• Arrange potato pieces evenly on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until just tender, about 4 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Cut potatoes into bite-size chunks.
• Heat butter and olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When butter melts and starts to turn brown, swirl the pan and add the potatoes. Shake pan to arrange in an even layer. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
• As potatoes brown, toss them and keep turning them every few minutes until they are crusty and crispy-edged and a rich reddish-brown color, 10 to 12 minutes. If potatoes seem to be cooking too quickly, reduce heat to medium. Serve topped with chopped chives.

CRISPY HOME FRIES

Steps:

• Cut potatoes into 3/4-inch cubes. Cut onion into 2 or 3 slices, then cut rings in half and separate the layers.
• Heat oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add cubed potatoes to the hot skillet and season with garlic salt and seasoned salt. Spread them out evenly over the bottom and allow to cook for 5 to 8 minutes without turning. Turn, and continue cooking, turning every 5 to 8 minutes, until evenly browned.
• When potatoes have reached the desired color, add onion. Cook, stirring every couple of minutes, until onion is slightly cooked, 5 to 8 minutes longer.
• Carefully remove potatoes and onions from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Allow to cool for 2 to 5 minutes before serving.
