Yummmy! I love the spices in the potatoes. I made them with eggs and bacon. Next time I will try them as a side for dinner. I also bet an onion added in will taste great. Can't wait to try it again with the onion. Thanks for posting this simple recipie.

My dad used to make this stuff for breakfast after Mass every Sunday morning. I have never been able to duplicate it...until now. Delicious and I didn't change a thing. Thank you for the post and a great childhood memory.

Just like Grandma used to make! I, too, cut up a white onion and added to the potatoes about four minutes before the potatoes were done. If you add the onion to soon they will burn or become tough. The cast iron skillet does make a difference but don't let that stop you from making these if you don't have one. Any skillet will still produce a great tasting country fried potato dish!

These were perfect, using a cast iron skillet really does make a difference. I used russet potatoes, they worked out fine. Did however cook the potatoes with onions added like others suggested. Thanks for the recipe!

YUM! I used peanut oil instead of shortening and red potatoes with the skin on and they were awesome. Added a little onion and then sprinkled a little shredded sharp cheddar once they were finished cooking. WILL make these again!

Yes! This is nearly identical to the fried potatoes that my grandma was famous for all those years ago. I sliced the potatoes in odd shapes as she did. I also added an onion, which I highly recommend. I look forward to adding peppers some day too. As another reviewer pointed out, the cast iron skillet is important. I had to use another skillet because my only cast iron skillet was occupied with chicken fried steak! The potatoes turned out great but I like the overall browing effect better with a good cast iron skillet. What a meal.

These were OK- I think they would have been better with a little more flavor- I added rosemary which was nice. Overall just not very exciting.

Lawsy Mercy these are good Southern home cookin'. I grew up on these except we always cooked our potatoes (and still do) in bacon fat and always have sliced white onion in with them. We usually use regular old white baking potatoes. With fried chicken, mashed taters, green beans and chocolate pie. Yummy!

A comforting favorite. We have them for dinner too, with a slice of ham or pork chops. I normally use bacon fat rather than shortening. It adds flavor and if I'm making the potatoes at breakfast, there is already some in the pan.

The only thing I didn't like about this recipe is that they didn't say what type of potato to use and what size... A large red potato is gonna be much smaller than a large russet! At least give me total lbs or something :) Anyhoo, I ended up using 6 large red potatos since its what I had on hand. Came out great... Husband and 1 year old were in heaven! Only thing I would do is move the potatos to a bowl before seasoning as it smoked pretty badly when I just dumped them into the hot pan.

These potatoes were pretty good. I added garlic salt instead of regular salt and cut down on the red pepper for my kids. Next time I will add cheese, sourcream, bacon bits, and chives for a taste of baked potatoe.
