"This is recipe is basically the way my Mom fried her potatoes. Where I use Onion Powder,she used diced onions.So you can use which ever one you like.The real secret to this recipe is, using a well seasoned cast iron skillet. That way you can get that crispy texture.I couldn't enter 3 1/2 cups sliced potatoes,but that's what you need. The amount of salt,pepper,and onion powder is strictly up to you.I've even used #recipe5279 By Bergy to season these with. If you would rather use chopped onions feel free to do so, but I'm not going to list in the prep time it takes to chop them.I was lazy and didn't peel my potatoes,if you want to go ahead.I'm a "Sight Cook ",with the seasonings,I just shake over the potatoes until it looks right to me.If there are any leftover,you could use them for breakfast the next morning to make #recipe6061( yeah,I know shameless self promotion).
