Souffle Potatoes
Ingredients
Directions
Peel the potatoes and soak them in ice water.
Slice the potatoes lengthwise into thin slices and return them to ice water.
Heat two frying pans with frying fat, one hotter than the other.
Remove the potatoes from the water, wipe them dry, and place them in the cooler pan to cook for a few minutes.
Transfer the potatoes to the hotter pan, where they will expand and puff up.
