Southern Fried Potatoes
Ingredients:
½ cup bacon grease
2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and small diced
1 small sweet onion, small diced
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon creole seasoning
½ teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions:
In a 10-inch or larger cast iron skillet, melt the bacon grease over medium heat.
Add the potatoes, onion, pepper, creole seasoning, and salt.
Toss so everything is coated in the bacon grease and well seasoned.
Press into a single layer, cover, and cook for 7-10 minutes until the bottom browns.
Flip the potatoes, making sure to scrape the bottom of the pan to release the crusty potatoes.
Continue to cook for 10-15 minutes, flipping occasionally until nicely browned and the potatoes are tender. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
