German Fried Potatoes
Thin round potato slices fried, then gently browned in clarified butter.
Method
Steps
Step 1
Wash and peel the four good-sized raw potatoes. Shape the peeled potatoes with a round cutter one inch in diameter, then cut the shaped pieces into thin, even slices about the thickness of a fifty-cent coin. Wash the slices well, drain and dry thoroughly.
Step 2
Put enough canola oil for deep-frying in a suitable fryer, within its fill limits, and heat to 350°F. Fry the dry potato slices in small batches for about eight minutes, until cooked and lightly golden. Lift out and drain well. Let the oil return to temperature between batches.
Step 3
Immediately transfer the drained potatoes to a frying pan with the half ounce of clarified butter. Fry gently for about six minutes, tossing carefully, until a good golden colour. Drain well, sprinkle the half teaspoon of salt over them and serve on a hot dish lined with a clean folded napkin.
