Potato Hash
From: dmrogers218 I love fried potatoes. But in general try cooking on medium and it takes time unless you want to deep fry them. I think most restaurants may boil or precook the potatoes some and then fry them when ordered and that does make them crispy. If making french fries, soak them in water for 5 minutes, rinse and soak again for another 5. If you soak potatoes for a recipe like the one below they won't have as much flavor. Hope this helps! deb in Georgia Tyler Florence/FoodTV About 1 cup extra-virgin olive oil - I would use canola oil unless you want the olive oil flavor 4 russet potatoes, rinsed in water and cut into large dice Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 2 onions, thinly sliced 1 red bell pepper, seeds and ribs removed, thinly sliced 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 green onions, finely chopped 3 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves removed 1 teaspoon smoked paprika Pinch cayenne pepper Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Once heated add the potatoes and shallow-fry for about 8 minutes until evenly browned on all sides. Remove the potatoes with a slotted spoon and place onto a paper towel-lined plate. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a large bowl. Remove most of the oil, leaving only a couple of tablespoons. Place over medium heat and add the sliced onions, sliced peppers and garlic and allow to caramelize. Add the green onions, thyme leaves, paprika and cayenne pepper. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste, and stir to combine. Add the potatoes back to the pan and stir to combine.
