VERY CRISPY HOME FRIES
This recipe is a little time consuming and has frying and re-frying involved, but in my opinion, it is worth every minute it takes to do it.

Steps:
- Peel and cube or wedge the potatoes.
- Place cubes in ice water and add salt. Let sit in ice water about 10-15 minutes.
- Heat oil in skillet.
- Get flour ready in flat bottomed pan so you can dredge wet potato wedges when they are done soaking.
- While oil is heating, in a colander drain potatoes.
- Flip potato pieces into the flour in pan and dredge until all sides of potato are well coated.
- When oil is hot put potato cubes or wedges into oil and fry. Fry until beginning to be golden, then turn and brown on other sides the same way.
- **Note: As potatoes fry you can cover them temporarily to increase heat -the secret to crispiness is leave them long enough on each side to form a little crust before turning them. The other secret will be frying the potatoes twice over, letting them cool in between. I find it helps to use tongs and a fork and individually flip the potato cubes or wedges so they all get browned evenly, but that is up to you. I also flip them all with spatula from time to to time.
- When browned and lightly crisped remove from oil and drain on paper towel.
- While potatoes are cooling heat oil back up and fry bell pepper and onion in same oil medium high heat.
- Fry veggies until onion starts to turn brown and golden around edges but don't let them turn too dark.
- Remove fried veggies and drain on paper towel. Lower heat temporarily while you thoroughly remove all fried vegetable pieces from hot oil.
- Add a little more oil and turn heat back up to get it hot.
- (Watch and have lid ready to protect yourself in case of "spitting" oil from moisture in vegetables in oil, until it boils off. Can lower heat a touch if gets too bad).
- Now, to the hot oil add back the once-fried crisp coated potatoes -- and fry again same way until the potatoes have formed a nice, brown crust on all sides.
- When potatoes are medium dark golden and just right (crispy enough), add back the onion and bell pepper to the crispy potatoes.
- Fry together for a very short time then remove before they burn. Vegetables burn relatively quickly so don't fry them long, then quickly remove all from oil and let drain on paper towels. Re-season the potatoes with pepper and onion, checking for garlic powder and saltiness to be just right.
- You are ready to eat. I like to set the potatoes aside in warm place covered with paper towel and fry eggs to go over the top of the potatoes when served.
- When ready to serve, if potatoes have cooled off too much, gently reheat in microwave real quickly.
- Enjoy.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes, cover and cook over medium-high heat until just tender, about 6 minutes; drain.
- Heat the butter and olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat; add the potatoes and spread into a single layer. Cook, undisturbed, until they start browning on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Add the onion and sprinkle with the paprika; flip the potatoes and cook 5 more minutes. Stir once, then continue cooking until the potatoes are mostly golden brown, about 5 more minutes.
- Meanwhile, roughly chop the garlic, pile the parsley on top and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Chop and mash together until finely minced. When the potatoes are done, add the garlic mixture to the skillet and toss to coat; cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:
- Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by about 2 inches. Season with salt. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer until just tender, about 6 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Cook the bacon in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Pour all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon drippings into a small bowl and set aside. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
- Wipe out the skillet and return to medium-high heat. Heat the remaining bacon fat and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in the skillet. Add the potatoes, season with salt and pepper to taste, and arrange in a single layer. Cook, without stirring, until well browned on 1 side, about 4 minutes. Using a spatula, turn the potatoes in small sections, and continue cooking, turning occasionally, about 6 minutes or until well browned. Stir in the onions, heat through, and sprinkle with the parsley and cayenne, if desired. Transfer to a warm platter and crumble the bacon on top, serve. Copyright 2005 Television Food Network, G.P.

LINDA'S AWESOME HOME FRIES
I was looking for a little added flavor in my home fries this morning and created this luscious recipe. They were AWESOME! I splurged and had them with fried eggs and toast for a DELICIOUS weekend breakfast. GREAT flavor and just a little spiciness from the seasoning. They are REALLY good! I cooked these on med-high, and from the starting of peeling the onion to putting them on my plate was 45 mins., so if you cook them on high it is going to take less time, and if you cook them on med. it's going to take longer. Med-high worked perfect for me, as it browned the home fries nicely and didn't scorch the onions! See my picture. If you have a lg. cast iron frying pan, I would suggest using it, as they make the "BEST" home fries :)

HOMEMADE CRISPY SEASONED FRENCH FRIES
My family loves French fries and with 4 children the bag fries from the store just weren't enough and became too expensive. So I tried batter - after all it makes chicken, shrimp, and onion rings crispy so why not potatoes. Now even my husband can't get enough of these French fries. They even stay crispy when you reheat in the microwave.

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, garlic salt, onion salt, (regular) salt, and paprika 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
In order to get a crispy crust like the fries at your local diner you need to precook and cool them. When you pan fry a cold starch, it gets a beautifully crispy surface.

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.
