It's Steak and Potato Night!
The Divine Miss M and her husband have been updating their outdoor living space. Jay rebuilt the deck by designing it and pretty much rebuilding the entire structure all by himself. I believe this project was completed right before Thanksgiving of last year. The guy amazes me! So, this summer has been the time to decorate in style!
Every Saturday night is the time to enjoy summer evenings and throw something on the grill. This was the night for a delicious grilled steak. I sent Miss M my recipe for the most delicious cottage fries and the manner in which to make them come out perfect every time!
PERFECT
COTTAGE FRIES
Extra
virgin olive oil for frying
8
medium sized russet potatoes, peeled
Salt,
Pepper, Garlic Powder to taste
Italian
Seasoning to taste
Place
the rinsed, peeled potatoes into a medium sized pan, cover with water, and add
the salt. Put the lid on the pan and bring to the boil.
Turn
down the heat and allow to simmer for about 8 minutes.
Once
the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into 1/2 inch slices.
Put
your oven on low, as you will need it to keep each batch of potatoes warm until
you have finished cooking them.
Fry
until golden brown and crunchy on one side, then turn over and cook the other.
Miss M and her husband have a beautiful deck!

ReplyDeleteMy hubby thinks breakfast is incomplete without a side of cottage fries. This recipe looks amazing and will be on the menu when he returns from New Orleans. BTW, I love the deck and the decorating, XOXO
