Fried Potatoes

Ingredients

• 2 pounds Potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Butter (or beef dripping) (Originally beef dripping. Substituted with butter for modern preference. Beef dripping can be used for authentic flavor.)
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt
• 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions

1. 1Boil the potatoes in their skins until tender, about 10-15 minutes. Let them cool completely.
2. 2Peel the cooled potatoes and slice them about 1/4-inch thick. Heat the butter (or beef dripping) in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potato slices and fry until they are a nice delicate brown, about 10-15 minutes per side, flipping them carefully.
3. 3Remove the potatoes from the skillet and drain off any excess grease. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
