Paeisian Potatoes

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Pare and cut the raw potatoes into balls, like walnuts.

  2. Boil them in salted water until tender.

  3. Drain the potatoes and lay them on a towel to dry for a moment.

  4. Brown the potatoes in hot lard, similar to doughnuts, for a very short time.

  5. Remove from the lard, sprinkle with a little coarse sea salt, and serve on a platter with broiled beef steak.
