Crispy Potatoes
List of Ingredients
2 pound russet potatoes - boiled in skins till tender
1 bunch green onions - chopped
2 teaspoons basil - crushed, or Italian herb seasoning
black pepper - freshly ground
1/2 cup vegetarian broth (chicken flavored)
Hungarian Paprika
3 tablespoons Italian parsley - freshly chopped, or fresh basil for garnish
Recipe
Peel cooked potatoes and dice in 1- inch cubes.
Place in an 8 x 11 x 2- inch baking dish that has been sprayed with nonstick spray. Sprinkle with chopped green onions, Italian seasoning, and freshly ground pepper. Mix gently with a fork to distribute the ingredients.
Pour chicken stock over the potatoes and sprinkle generously with Hungarian paprika.
Bake in a preheated 400 degree Fahrenheit oven on upper shelf. Stir every 15 minutes until nicely browned and crisp, about 45 minutes. Place under broiler to complete browning before serving.
To serve: Garnish with freshly chopped Italian parsley or fresh basil. Because it is so easy to prepare, this dish lends itself nicely to outdoor entertaining for large parties.
VARIATION:
In step 4, after stirring, spray with a mixture of 3 tablespoons mild soy sauce and 1/4 cup water placed in a plastic spray bottle. Stir again. Spray and stir every 15 minutes. This will, of course, increase the sodium content of the recipe. Serves 6.
