Potatoes Fried
Ingredients
Directions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into pieces ½ inch wide and as long as the potato.
Soak the potato pieces in cold water until ready to use.
Heat lard in a pot until boiling.
Drop the potato pieces into the boiling lard and cook until nearly done.
Remove the potatoes with a skimmer and drain them.
Bring the lard back to a boil and return the potatoes to fry until fully cooked.
Sprinkle with coarse sea salt and serve very hot.
