BLACKENED HOME-FRIED POTATOES FROM HELL



Blackened Home-Fried Potatoes from Hell image

Provided by Bob Blumer - Host of Surreal Gourmet and Glutton for Punishment

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h3m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds potatoes (Yukon gold, white, or red potatoes are best, but or baking potatoes, like russets, work well too)
Too much butter
Too much olive oil
6 cloves garlic, diced
1 medium-size cooking onion, diced
1/2 cup fresh rosemary, thyme, or dill, stems discarded before measuring
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Quarter potatoes, skin on, and boil them in 8 cups of water with a teaspoon of salt for approximately 20 minutes, or until tender to the poke of a fork. Drain water.
  • In your best large nonstick pan or well-seasoned skillet, over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil. When the butter/oil mixture is hot, transfer potatoes to pan and use a spatula to chop the quarters into smaller pieces (there is no science here). As the potatoes absorb the butter and oil during cooking, continue to add equal amounts of each, as required, to keep the pan well greased. Saute for 20 minutes, turning occasionally, or until potatoes begin browning on all sides. If the potatoes start burning before they brown, reduce the heat.
  • Add garlic, and onions and continue cooking for 15 more minutes, or until potatoes, garlic and onions are all very browned and crispy.
  • When it seems potatoes are almost done to your liking, add herbs, salt, and pepper to taste and toss well. Serve immediately on warmed plates.

1 medium cooking onion, diced
1/2 cup thyme or 1/2 cup dill, stems discarded before measuring
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

  • Adding them too soon will cause them to burn before the potatoes are crisp, and too late will prevent the garlic and onion from fully caramelizing.

1/4 cup plus 1 tabsp olive oil
3 russet potatoes cut into 1 " pieces
coarse salt
2 onions sliced into rings
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
2 tablsp chopped Italian parsley

Tips for Making Perfect Home Fried Potatoes:

  • Choose the Right Potatoes: Select firm, waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold, Red Potatoes, or Russet Potatoes. These varieties hold their shape well during frying and result in a crispy exterior and tender interior.
  • Cut Potatoes Evenly: Cut potatoes into uniform pieces (cubes, wedges, or slices) to ensure even cooking. Smaller pieces will cook faster, while larger pieces will take longer.
  • Soak Potatoes (Optional): Soaking potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before frying helps remove excess starch, resulting in crispier potatoes. Rinse and pat dry thoroughly before frying.
  • Use the Right Oil: Opt for high-heat cooking oils with a neutral flavor, such as vegetable oil, canola oil, or grapeseed oil. Avoid using olive oil, as it has a low smoke point and can burn easily.
  • Fry Potatoes in Batches: Avoid overcrowding the pan to prevent steaming rather than frying. Fry potatoes in batches if necessary, ensuring they have enough space to crisp up.
  • Season Generously: Don't be shy with seasonings! Common seasonings for home fried potatoes include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and chili powder. You can also add fresh herbs like parsley or thyme.
  • Cook Potatoes Thoroughly: Cook potatoes until they are tender on the inside and golden brown on the outside. The internal temperature should reach 200°F (93°C) for safety.
  • Serve Immediately: Home fried potatoes are best enjoyed fresh out of the pan. Serve them as a side dish, breakfast item, or even as a main course with your favorite protein.

Conclusion:

Home fried potatoes are a classic comfort food that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With the right ingredients and techniques, you can easily make delicious and crispy home fried potatoes at home. Experiment with different seasonings and toppings to create your own signature dish.
