Cooking Instructions
- 1
Rinse potatoes and chop evenly in 1.5" chunks.
- 2
Cover your potatoes in cold water and let them set for 10 minutes. Dump water and refill with cold water. Drain.
- 3
Fully drain and dry your potatoes on thick paper towels.
- 4
Chop or fine mince all herbs and vegetables.
- 5
Lightly coat your potatoes in garlic olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 tbsp granulated garlic and granulated powder, 1 tsp dried parsley, sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste.
- 6
Lightly coat your fully heated pan with a high heat frying oil. You'll want your pan smoking hot with limited oil to achieve a sear.
- 7
Again, on high heat, uncovered, pan sear your potatoes until golden and crispy. About 7 minutes. Gently mix from pan bottom as not to bruise potatoes.
- 8
Add your chopped vegetables and herbs to your scored potatoes.
- 9
Gently mix well and turn heat to medium. Be careful not to burn garlic. Fry covered for 10 minutes with 1/3 cup of a quality white wine.
- 10
Steam until potatoes are soft and vegetables are transparent. About 10 minutes. Gently stir occasionally. When fully cooked, remove lid and allow all fluids to dissipate.
- 11
Before pulling from pan and plating, add more garlic and onion powders, sea salt and ground pepper to taste and mix.
- 12
Sides that go great with this dish. All are great but I'd recommend the Sirachas. Some of my students even used ketchup.
- 13
Two Velveta Mini Blocks are also a great addition to add to your potatoes. Enjoy!

A quick Chefs tip? Always save your [unburnt] bacon grease in a tightly sealed container in your fridge. No need to strain it. I use a plastic ice cream jar and fill grease as its needed. It firms up solid and literally never goes bad. And, it seems to last forever!

Basic Fried Potatoes Basic Fried Potatoes
When I was young, I pored over ancient cookbooks. I couldn’t afford to take the family to dinner or fill a freezer with convenience foods because I was so broke. So I took what I learned from my mom and read every cookbook I could get my hands on, and started educating myself. If I couldn’t buy it, I would make it with inexpensive, bare bones ingredients. But first I had to learn HOW to make it. As we all know, we’re still in school 😂 my basics are, as an example, potatoes, eggs, cooked sauces, a chunk of meat, cakes, cookies, veg, etc. I’ve made a LOT of bad food in my life but I’ve also made really good stuff too. My first roast I ever made took 20 minutes, it was grey, and it bounced🤣🤣 With these basic recipes I’m posting, I’m hoping someone can get some good basic knowledge to feed themselves and their families good homemade food and not be a slave to the high prices. A sack of potatoes is cheaper than a bag of frozen fries and tastes waaaaay better and you get so much more bang for your buck with more than one serving and options.

Mike's Salted Irish Pub Garlic Potatoes Mike's Salted Irish Pub Garlic Potatoes
Like a bowl of free peanuts or pretzels - these salted spuds are served at local Irish bars in the NE.Don't assume that these potatoes will be overly salty as they are not, regardless of the brine. Only the shell [skin] of the potato will be salty and crusted, IF not pierced. Basically, they'll leave you with a delightful salty taste on your lips. It's the additional salted butter sauce that will supply all the sodium you'll expect from its name!Also, know that these appetizers are traditionally made with salt, white new spuds, real melted butter and chives only. Even then, chives were a luxury if one could afford it. Anyway, any other additions by us are respectable renditions that are always noted & appreciated! So, get creative and have fun with this recipe! -
