Home Fries Recipe
This homemade, comforting home fries recipe is a quick weeknight dinner side dish the whole family will love. Easily pair these lightly seasoned home fries with hamburgers, sandwiches or a steak salad, for a lighter meal.
Ingredients
- 4-6 medium potatoes cubed
- 2-4 tablespoons butter melted
- 1-2 tablespoons Lawry's Seasoned Salt to avoid over salting, add 1 teaspoon at a time, repeat until coated
Instructions
- Cube the potatoes, leaving the peels on.
- Melt the butter.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the potatoes and melted butter. Shake well to mix.
- Add the Lawry’s Seasoned Salt one teaspoon at a time. Shake to mix. Repeat until coated and you are satisfied you have enough salt but not too much. You can season to taste after baking.
- Spread the potatoes in a single layer in the baking pan. You should not need to butter or oil the pan, as there should be enough on the potatoes to not warrant additional grease.
- Bake at 425 for 20 minutes.
- After 20 minutes, turn the potatoes and bake for another 20 minutes.
- After the second 20 minutes have elapsed, turn the potatoes again. Bake for about another 10 minutes.
- Remove the potatoes from the oven. They should be a nice golden to dark brown color, indicating they are done. If you prefer your potatoes even more caramelized, continue to bake in 5-minute increments, ensuring they don’t burn.
- Serve with the rest of your meal and any condiments, such as ketchup or ranch dressing.
Notes
Notes and Substitutions:
- Tony Chachere’s Original Creole Seasoning - Add a spicy punch of heat with Tony Chachere’s Original Creole Seasoning instead of Lawry’s.
- Lipton Onion Soup and Dip Mix - Use Lipton Onion Soup and Dip Mix as a replacement for Lawry’s. Be careful to not use the whole box, as it is quite salty. Mix in one tablespoon at a time.
- Fresh Parsley - When serving, sprinkle fresh parsley on top for a pop of freshness.
