Wow thanks, what a great tip! My 15 yr old son loves to make fried potatoes but complains they end up too soft, so we will definitely be trying this tip asap.
Larry, There is a faster way that will save you a half hour. Heat a frying pan to medium , using equal amounts of oil and butter. While that's happening, cut the "tates and veggies to sise. Put every thing in the pan and give it a good stir to coat everything with the oil and butter. ( butter adds a richer flavor) . Cover the pan and cook for 8 minutes. Uncover and stir. Recover for 8 more minutes. Uncover , season to taste, ( salt, pepper, paprika, and any other herbs and spices you like, stir, and recover for 8 minutes and they are done.
This is our family’s tried and true method, and the key is to use a lid/cover to allow them to get tender and then remove and turn up heat and let potatoes get as crisp to personal preference. Same method as fried chicken in a pan- they seem to not understand the lid is vital and they’ll brown even with a lid
Good point. Since sweet red peppers became more readily available, I kind of lost my taste for the slight bitterness of green peppers, but I can still fully appreciate why the contrast still works for you. Thank you for writing!
Yes. I just made it as you did and had it with poached eggs fifteen minutes ago. Very good. My wife and I will have it again. It takes time but it is worth it and the ingredients are inexpensive. Thanks.@@LarryRichardson
I would have thought that as the potatoes were already cooked that the vegatables would have been done first. In England this is close to what we call "Bubble and Squeak" which uses left over potatoes and vegatables from the Dinner or Lunch even the previous day. That would be mushed up rather than kept in separate lumps but the principle is the same.
Well no wonder I have so much trouble frying them all together…I don’t precook the potstoes and I slice them as in regular fried potatoes and then the onions and peppers either tend to burn or added later they don’t cook right. I pan fry the veggies separates and before the potatoes are done, I mix them all together then. I’ve seen relatives put sliced potatoes raw and all those veggies raw,,together from the start,,put a lid on them and steam as much as fry but lower temp so they’re don’t need stirred a lot. Their’s come out fine…but I don’t seem to have that knack.
Use Idaho spuds - russets, cut the time and don't boil - cube and fry maybe 20 minutes with veggies. Everything else same. Nice. Thank you for sharing.
"Hala-pin-ya" for the win. Lol. Nice video, although as far as the potatoes go, I get the same result without the boiling process. Been making this for years but instead of bell pepper, I use matchstick carrots.
Easier way to do the Potatoes is rub them with some olive or any oil of your choice pierce them with a knife put them in the microwave cook on one side for 2 minutes and the next side 2.5 minutes all done
@@LarryRichardson Thanks. I tried it and it was a delicious meal. By the way, I added a tea spoon of cumin to the vegetables. I think this made all the difference...
What are you cutting your veggies on? It looks like a metal pan, I can see all the knife marks in the metal surface. You are wrecking the edge on that knife!! My family is partial to using butter instead of oil, the butter gives the potatoes & veggies a much better flavor. If your afraid of the butter burning, mis the butter with the oil.
You are making more work for yourself.I cut raw potatoes onion and green pepper.I use oil and butter.Fry for about 45 min. covered.Stirring often.Add tons of garlic.
after cutting cooked potatoes put in Fridge till totally chilled... then cook. they wont fall apart and will brown better

Ooh!! Thank you for the tip👍🏾 you rock!!!!@
Just tried this and it’s amazing! Pretty straight to the point and quicker to make
Thanks a lot Larry for this simple awesome video!!! I will add it to my cooking skills. My kids will be so happy....
Very nicely and clearly explained!!! Made it, and it was REALLY GOOD!! THANK YOU! Was good to know that you survived your visit to the Everglades!
Bells are great, I use the serranos & jalapenos green & when they turn red. Love taters, onion, & chilies. Great work . Thankyou.
Ohhh it would be so delish with prawns

There are so many ways to make every dish. Thank you for sharing your technique.
faster is not always better, required or desired..... JUST sayin.
@@captaincrunch72 If you fry potatoes from the raw state, they are much more firm.
He doesnt even know how to cut a onion

I make my potatoes with both red and green bell pepper because it adds more flavor.
Good point. Since sweet red peppers became more readily available, I kind of lost my taste for the slight bitterness of green peppers, but I can still fully appreciate why the contrast still works for you. Thank you for writing!
Looks great. I can already smell it. I'm going to give this a try with poached eggs. Thanks. Good teacher too.
Superb! I hope you like it. Thank you for writing!

I'm liking it, great instruction and great recipe!
A lot of good vitamins and minerals in the skins. I never peel.
Im a new sub and I love how you make your dishes simple to understand, alot of people skip steps without realizing it. So thanks!!!
Thank you! Glad you enjoy the videos -- and get the point of the StepByStepChef approach.
I AGREE!!!

Love the name! Thank you for writing!
I really like your videos 😊 very helpful, keep up the good work.
This was so yummy
Fantastic! Thank you for letting me know.
AKA Potatoes o'brien.👍👍👍
Larry that looks delicious ! I use the same ingredients but I also use two tea spoons of sugar

Thank you for your recommendation. I'm a red potato fanatic, but I'll give your approach a try.
Thanks so much delicious
Thank you Larry! This looks yummy! BTW we're you ever on a cooking show on PBS?
"Hala-pin-ya" for the win. Lol. Nice video, although as far as the potatoes go, I get the same result without the boiling process. Been making this for years but instead of bell pepper, I use matchstick carrots.
boiled and fried??
Thank you thank you..
The potatoes can you make them the day before, or will they not taste the same as cook in the morning.
Yes my friend you can make them the day before it will not affect the taste at all
yummy breakfast
Glad you liked it! Thank you for writing!
THANK YOU ,
You're welcome! Glad you liked it!
I'm pulling for the gators!
@Mr. Tim Travasos, Your a loser... please find something better to do with your life
Thank you, it tastes incredible, but ive put some some good chicken meat beside it aswell, you are a good cook!
What do you use if you are allergic to onions?
I would use a wider assortment of peppers. Sweet red pepper, green pepper and jalepenos (if you like heat) should work well. Hope this helps.
Use anything else but onions. DAHH
Onions🤗
Easier way to do the Potatoes is rub them with some olive or any oil of your choice pierce them with a knife put them in the microwave cook on one side for 2 minutes and the next side 2.5 minutes all done
I Like🤓
I know that’s good
Liked and subbed...
Perfect! Thank you for writing.
@@LarryRichardson Thanks. I tried it and it was a delicious meal.
By the way, I added a tea spoon of cumin to the vegetables. I think this made all the difference...
he has buggerred the potatoes in the beginning itself
Looks great I love to fried potatoes and onions and don't get eat by the alligators
Hope you enjoy it! We made it! ;-)
🥰🥰🥰
Does anyone know if Larry made it back from kayaking with the alligators?
It looks like your knife could use a sharpen
These are called HOME FRIES chef
Can you add gator to the potatoes buddy! lolol
Gator and a little andouille sounds great. Thank you for writing!
Don't eat lizards, unclean
won't eat lizard period! lolol
From the sound, that cutting board is ruining your knife.
To much time watching vegetables being sliced and diced.
Potatoes don't take 30 minutes to cook plus when you fry them they will cook more!
Learn how to cut a onion lol
I thought that was a very ingenious way to cut an onion !
