MIDWEST BLUES: A young sista (maybe 18/19) was ATTEMPTING to describe to her Caucasian friends what these “things” are. The sista didn’t know the name (Salmon Croquettes) and I wanted to cry because… I should’ve told her the name and history of them INSTEAD of judging her for not knowing.
It's 4:30 a.m. couldn't sleep, and then I come across this. Now I'm craving these potatoes and they look so delicious I just HAVE to make them today. Thank You soooooooo much. Yum
This is how my mom used to fry potatoes. She liked using an electric skillet. They are good plain but I love ketchup on them. These along with cucumbers in vinegar...😋
Yesss!!! Enjoy! It's the old school way of making homefried potatoes. I watched my mom make them this way and I continued on the tradition♥️ Don't forget to subscribe to my Channel for more great cooking videos! Cheryl
Simple, fool-proof...toss the veggies with seasonings before frying and it it won't break up the potatoes. You can include finely dice bell peppers and squash...at same ratio as the onion for even better flavor/nutrition.
My Grandma and Dad both made these. They didn't add the onion powder since the onion was already in it. Also no paprika, fried them in a large cast iron skillet so they didn't get mushy. They both saved bacon grease and used that to fry them in. Also used it to fry or scramble eggs. That was in the Northeast, so not Southern style. Although it sounds more Southern than yours.
Midwest boomer here! Yes, bacon grease to give more flavor to the potatoes, no paprika and garlic powder instead of onion powder. Served alongside some perfectly crisp bacon or sage sausage patties…..shut it down! 🥓 🥔 🍳 ❤
I can't tell you how happy i am to have found this video. My mom was from West Virginia so i grew up on fried taters. I never watched her cook them ..one of the few things she made that i absolutely could not replicate. No matter what i did they stuck horribly to the pan and never crisped up. NO ONE TOLD ME TO STEAM COOK THEM FIRST. I had no idea. I am making them right now and i am floored. Not one potato is sticking. And they are crisp! Its so simple but i dudnt know! Thank you so very much.
Almost exactly like my Ma made hers except she used bacon grease, no paprika and garlic powder instead of onion. The potatoes were served with crisp bacon or sage sausage patties. Thanks for fond memories!❤
i weirdly boil my potatoes (sliced them like into the chip form) for like 20 minutes (sometimes 30 if they are not tender enough) then i fry them up in the skillet with some oil, season with garlic and onion powder and put chopped bacon and mexican shredded cheese to enjoy, it's like a stovetop skillet version of a bacon cheese potato skin you get from restaurants (only cheaper)
Many children today have no idea what it means to KNOW how to COOK. Mom and Dad make everything. Only when you are broke will you learn what it means to have those skills. Its easy to live when someone else always provides.
I was taught to use left over baked potatoes. Cut to desired size, season and sauté in butter to brown one side with chopped onions. After getting desired color, add chicken stock and let steam for a few minutes till tender off the heat (I use cast iron so the heat will carry over). Lot less fuss.
Half the work is done because their cooked. You still need to add flavor, so it will take you less time. Do the onions 🧅 first, since they will take longer to cook .
I prefer my Home Fries with Avocado and Feta on top. The cheese melts and creates a delectable aroma as the Home Fries are mixed and then the richness of the Avocado adds an Umami to it.
Thank you Kevin♥️ This is how my momma made them too! It's an oldschool recipe, you caught that!!! Don't forget to subscribe to my Channel for more Great Cooking Videos! Cheryl
Looks incredible. My Mom used to make something like this, She would add some chopped chicken breast too. But she would start cooking the chicken first.
We use a lot of bacon and I always have bacon on hand when I do my fried potatoes and onions it is in bacon grease did you know that Kroger selling canned bacon grease for $10 a can did you not know that check it out no way in hell would I ever pay for bacon grease when I get it from the bacon myself that's crazy and people will buy it as the old saying goes if you build it they will come if you make it they will buy it if you cook it they will eat it people are jacked up you do know that right I am 76 years old and thank god with age comes a little wisdom I'm still jacked up in some ways and probably always will because we all have baggage another different story but I'm just going to let you just hang with potatoes and onions but doing the bacon grease it's a world of difference in the taste now that's our deep deep southern fried potatoes and onions I mean like Georgia Rome Georgia Georgia potatoes and onions and black rod iron skillet
It looked like quite a chore to not break up the potatoes while trying to stir in the seasonings. l would probably try to add all seasonings to oil stir in well, then place potatoes and onions in gently. So all the oil has the flavor in it, when comes in contact with potatoes and onion, should be GREAT!
Ahh, my grandmother's deep cast-iron skillet. No matter what she fried, oil, lard and especially bacon renderings got poured & strained into a coffee can for re-use. Mom did the same thing after she died, and Dad did the same after Mom died.
3-4 Idaho Potatoes, 1 Onion, use the video as a guide for seasoning... seasalt, black pepper, paprika, onion powder(start of using a little and increase seasoning to taste)
@@CinnamonStoveKitchen Thanks i even have all the spices for it making bacon and eggs on the side i can eat breakfast food any time of the day love it.
Should I rinse the potatoes in water to get the starch off, then pat dry before frying? Some people do, some people don't, but I'd prefer whatever method you use ❤
Hello, I peel and rinse the potatoes, however I don't pat dry. If this is your first time making use a nonstick pan to avoid sticking until you get better at it.
My brother taught me how to make these. It's the only way I like them. I don't like the potatoes boiled like some people make them. I like mine almost potato chip crisp and brown.
Single dad making these for my kids! We are having them with Salmon croquettes!! Thanks!!
Now I want some 😩
Making now lol

Same bro 💪🏾🤛🏾
That was my favorite breakfast as a child was so special! Smothered potatoes, salmon, croquettes and eggs. Best breakfast memory 😋
My grandma used to make this for me before she passed and I forgot the actual steps. Thanks for reminding me
My mom would make them for us as kids. She's passed on but I remember most of the wonderful recipes♥️
I honestly forgot about this recipe my grandma used to make it all the time! Making it tonight thank you!
Me too, great for every meal lol
My folks don’t cook much anymore. I’m 24 and never got those kitchen lessons. It’s my turn to carry on. #Maysville KY ✨
Amen♥️
I'm making this tomorrow with some baked pork chops. I can smell the food through the screen right now. 🤤🥔😋
Wow!! That sounds so delicious!!

I remember when my mother used to make these for me. I used to cok then as well but it has been awhile. Looks good as always
Thank you!! Grew up on these my mom would make them for us as well...to this day it's still one of my favorites, good eatin'

I have heard, but not tried, putting the potatoes in the microwave for a few minutes to get a head start on softening them up

@@tax905972 I have onion jam in my fridge as a staple. I just add them to temp.

@@Alan-71351 Stupid comment. Once in a while does no harm. Everything in moderation.
New Subscriber. Great looking potatoes
My grandad use to cook this for me when I was in middle school now I cook it for my 4 year old.
2:15. Continue tossing. // No ketchup, EVER, Christina!!! // They looked absolutley delicious.
Thanks I'm about to make it right now!
Looks incredible. My Mom used to make something like this, She would add some chopped chicken breast too. But she would start cooking the chicken first.
This dish is so delicious I love enjoy it so yummy 😋 😊
Looks amazing
3:44 Yummy! Thanks for sharing. 😊
Now I have to go out and buy some spuds!
It's late night and watching this makes me want to get up and go peel some taters!!!
lol♥️
Do what you gotta do!!!
Exactly!
Oh, me too!!!
I see you know what you’re doing!! 💪🏿💪🏿✊🏿
Thank you
I am making this...so excited!
Shouldnt the Onions be added LATER when the potatoes are almost done?
Onions cook much faster than potatoes.
I always add at the same time...the texture is perfect for me. However if you prefer a little crunch you can add later
5am can't sleep, hubby smells them and it's making him hungry😅 1st time trying
Looks tummy😊
I'm getting hungry. I'll be making some.
FRESH BUTTER INSTEAD OF OIL !
Only thing missing is two fried eggs resting on top.
Melt farmers cheese in skillet then slide onto potatoes.
Thanks for the video!

Well, never thought I’d ever hear of bacon grease on grocery shelves! 🤪 Yes, I’m old! 😄
What's a black rod skillet?
This looks delicious and easy, but you started with oil in the pan and forgot to list it in your table of ingredients. So...? Thanks.
It looked like quite a chore to not break up the potatoes while trying to stir in the seasonings. l would probably try to add all seasonings to oil stir in well, then place potatoes and onions in gently. So all the oil has the flavor in it, when comes in contact with potatoes and onion, should be GREAT!
Calm down
Prolly good.. but you have to add Garlic to any potatoes
Instead of the seasoning shown in the video, try 'Old Bay Seasoning'.
Thank you making this with some fried chicken wings❤
Ahh, my grandmother's deep cast-iron skillet. No matter what she fried, oil, lard and especially bacon renderings got poured & strained into a coffee can for re-use. Mom did the same thing after she died, and Dad did the same after Mom died.
Perfect 👍🏽
This is OFF THE 🪝 HOOK ..! ...I'M MR .MOM here ....and these potatoes....Well THEY ARE ALL GONE!!?👍👍👍
Thank you ❤️🔥🎉
I cook mine with some bacon as well making some as I write this
My step did these back when we were kids but no paprika just lard with onions and salt sometime black pepper
All that stirring and flipping is why these take so long and taste so good!
Thank you ❤️
Those look so so so so good.
I grew up eating this very dish!
I made this for my honey and he loved it…
