OLD FASHIONED SAVORY CANNED POTATOES MADE EASY



Old Fashioned Savory Canned Potatoes Made Easy image

Running out of time, no time to go to the store. Want a sample side dish for a grilled pork chop or chicken? We all forget that some canned vegetables are not all that bad. Now I am a fan of fresh, but there are a few I keep on hand, and potatoes are one of them. I use them in soups to make a hearty soup for dinner in just minutes and now and then pan saute with butter and seasoning. Ninety percent of time I use fresh, but a few canned, frozen vegetables and beans are a great go to that you should always have on hand.

Categories     Potato

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

30 ounces canned potatoes (2 cans)
1 tablespoon butter (you can add a bit more if you like and the end of cooking)
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon fresh parsley, and chopped fine
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
pancetta, scallions or thin sliced onion

Steps:

  • Just cook -- Nothing more. In a medium saute pan saute the butter and olive oil too to get the potatoes nice and brown. I like to pan saute just until lightly brown, they should take 5-8 minutes on medium high. The last minute I add the garlic, seasoning and any other OPTIONS (roasted peppers, pimento, sauteed bacon or scallions) if you desire. You can also add extra butter at this point if you want really buttery potatoes with a little sauce.
  • Simple and quick and honestly -- very very good!

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are best for home fries because they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Soak the potatoes in water: This will help remove excess starch and prevent them from sticking together.
  • Use a well-seasoned skillet: This will help prevent the potatoes from sticking and give them a nice golden brown color.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: Give the potatoes enough space to cook evenly.
  • Cook the potatoes over medium-high heat: This will help them cook quickly and evenly.
  • Flip the potatoes frequently: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
  • Season the potatoes to taste: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all classic seasonings for home fries.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately: Home fries are best when served hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Home fries are a classic breakfast dish that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages.
