Ingredients




12 small potatoes
1/2 cup flour
seasonings to taste (I used seasoning salt and parsley, but can add lard/oil

Preparation

1 Boil potatoes till the skin just starts splitting.  About 10 minutes or so.  The potatoes do not need to be cooked thoroughly in the boil. 2 Take from the stove, drain and cool in cold water. 3 Gently peel the skin of the potatoes off. 4 Mix the flour and seasonings and roll the potatoes one by one very gently. 5 Heat 2 inches of oil in a pot to deep frying stage (325 degrees). 6 Drop the potatoes in very gently, I set mine on a spoon and lower them in. 7 When one side is browned, turn to the other side. 8 Drain on towel and serve warm. 9 These go wonderful with Cheeseburgers, Sloppy Joes, etc.  I show mine served with Ranch Dressing.
