Using any type of potatoes to make smothered fried potatoes with onions salt and pepper. A old fashion recipe #smotheredfriedpotatoes#alabamaprepper #sustainable #homemadefood
My mother used to make something similar to this. She was born in 1921 in Athens Alabama. I grew up eating pinto beans, corn bread and fried potatoes. I’m healthy having grown up eating this inexpensive food 😁
Know this is a year or so old, nevertheless, three of my absolute childhood and continued adulthood favorites. Memories of mom😊😊. Arkansas. Then. North when I was 10.
❤ Yum! This is how my grandma made em and I make em same way. Perfect with beans and cornbread and a slice of fresh onion too. Good old country cooking.
I absolutely love your Red & White Enamel ware lid! It reveals how much it has been used in preparing food for the table I'm sure with so much love over the decades...(Circa 1940 & earlier on the Red & White)... My grandmother (She was a Tuscaloosa Gal) used to make these smothered fried potatoes often...I have tried & tried to replicate them 100s of times and mine NEVER turn out like Maw Maw's! I thank you so very much for your videos & this one in particular....maybe now...I can make these without them turning to mush! ❤️&🙏
I love smothered potatoes! I haven’t made them in years. But I will be cooking them today! The only thing that I do differently is to cook bacon in them, cut up in small pieces. Thank you for reminding me of this Ms.Margaret! Have a blessed day!🙏🏻♥️
I'm a 64 yr old Guy that cant cook , But I'm going to try that. Looks Good. Oh, your knife skills are impressive. You peeled and cut up those Potatoes licky split.😄
Hi Margaret. Hope you and yours are keeping well. I can smell this delicious dish through the technology. God bless. Thank you for all your lessons on CZcams.💕🙏🌹
I've been doing it all wrong , but I get the same results. I brown my potatoes first not using a lid. Then when they are sufficiently brown I put the lid on to cook them. But doing that will take away some of the crispness. Then I turn heat up to crisp them back up without a lid. So basically you are working smarter, while I'm working harder. Next time I will do it your way. Thanks for sharing.
I live in Texas and love food like this but I don't understand how they can be called "smothered"? This is fried skillet potatoes and onions here. Could someone elaborate? They look delicious btw.
I like that you're generous with the salt and pepper-especially the pepper!

I grew up eating the same and still eat it off and on. I’m 86. I’m from Alabama.
I'm 68yrs old, family of 6, and we ate this same meal growing up. Awesome meal.

This is how I make fried potatoes, except I use bacon grease. Yummy
It turns out bacon grease is a lot healthier than vegetable or canola oil! Good job!
You just gave me an idea. Thanks 😋
Yes mam, looks delicious!

Exactly how I cook my taters. Never called them smothered just fried taters. Love them!! Thank You for Sharing and God Bless You!!
I cook my potatoes simar. Smothered Fried Potatoes sounds way better than what I call mine which is pan fried potatoes.
Your knife skills are amazing.
That's how my mama cooked and that's how I cook them thank you

Me too!

YUM! Looks delicious. You are amazing with that knife.
There’s nothing better than new potatoes❣️
I love your videos! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe and showing us how to do it!❤

Use bacon grease, it seasons them better.

Yummy!!
I love these Margaret.
Yummy 😋 thank you for sharing 😋
We just called them fried potatos but made them exactly the same way.
You made me cry….I miss her
Looks yummy.

Miss Pepper; I must ask, did you wash those red potatoes after cutting them up or did you leave the starch in them on purpose?
Exactly how my Mother did it! (Except she cut em up into cubes!)
Margaret, oil? Really? You must be out of lard LOL! Bacon grease works to but that has to be saved for sawmill gravy ;) Anyway, looks delicious!
I actually saw bacon grease for sale in the store for $6 for a pint! Crazy! I keep all mine after cooking bacon.
My dry canned potatoes are used this way
Thanks for sharing Margaret, that looks good, what kind of oil do you use in the pan?
So this is pretty much how everyone else made them in their videos 😂
I cut my potatos in small squares.

You never showed any grease going in that pan. You sprayed it with Pam. That’s all we saw.
Can you make an anime red motel or or can you
Are you my grandma?
Why are people calling fried potatoes, smother-fried? They're not smothered in anything.
They are called " smother fried" because the pan is covered (smothered) during cooking.
@@gretaoverstreet8572 That makes sense☺️
