Home Fries With Burnt Ends Pickled Chiles And Red Onions Recipes

HOME FRIES WITH BURNT ENDS, PICKLED CHILES AND RED ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes, green onions, roasted red pepper, paprika and some salt and pepper; stir and then press everything with a spatula to smash it into an even layer. Cook until it starts to crisp and brown on the bottom, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the burnt ends and use the spatula to fold them into the potatoes, turning everything so that lots of the crispy bits are on top; smash again with the spatula to brown the second side, 4 to 5 minutes more.
• Top with the pickled chiles and onions. Sprinkle with the cilantro and serve from the skillet.

PICKLED RED ONIONS AND FRESNO CHILES

• Pour the hot mixture over the Fresno chiles and onions in a heat-proof bowl and allow to cool at least 10 minutes before serving, or allow to cool completely and refrigerate until ready to use.
