And no, I don’t mean home fries in the usual sense. I mean French fries made at home. (Why? Because I love alliteration. Anyway…)
Recently my friend Adam Roberts, otherwise known as the Amateur Gourmet, asked me to write a guest post for his blog while he was traveling in Barcelona. I wanted to write about something delicious and simple (my signature style, as far as I’m concerned) that also captured the spirit of Eating Well on Fifty Bucks a Week. I thought hard about something I really missed and French fries came to me. Burgers and fries were what I would order when I’d go out. And now that I rarely eat anywhere but home, fried potatoes are no longer a part of my diet. While that’s probably a good thing as far as my waistline is concerned, I can’t deny that I miss them.
While my fries aren’t fried, they are crispy, salty and a little bit spicy—and made even better with a sweet, tart dipping sauce.
My super simple recipe is after the jump and you can read the original post (with lots of pictures) at the Amateur Gourmet.
