Step-by-step cooking of fried potatoes with lard in a hurry
1. For the recipe for fried potatoes with lard, you can use both fresh and salted bacon, and depending on this, we will vary the amount of salt in the future. We cut the product into elongated sticks about 1 cm thick. If the skin is dense enough, then it is better to cut it off. when frying, it will become quite hard and difficult to chew.
2. Peel the root vegetable, rinse and cut into strips. The thickness of a single piece should not be more than 7 mm, so the potatoes can be fried evenly, and a crispy crust forms on it. To slightly reduce the calorie content of the finished dish, chopped potatoes can be placed in warm water for 10 minutes and then dried on a towel. So starch will partially come out of it, which, during heat treatment, greatly increases the glycemic index of the product.
3. The direct preparation of fried potatoes with lard in a hurry begins with melting the fat for frying. So, put the prepared bacon in a dry frying pan, turn on the fire to a medium level and gradually warm it up, achieving the release of fat. At the same time, do not forget to turn over the pieces of bacon so that they do not burn. When a sufficient amount of fat appears in the pan, move the bacon to one side, increase the heat and place the prepared potatoes in the free space.
4. Roasting time - 3-4 minutes. Then turn over, mix with bacon and fry again for several minutes. We repeat this cycle 4 times. At this stage, it is worth monitoring the amount of fat, if it is not enough, then you can add a little vegetable oil. After that, we reduce the heat and cover with a lid. We keep for a few more minutes on the stove to bring the fried potatoes with lard to readiness, and then add salt.
5. Fried potatoes with bacon are ready in a hurry! Serving is carried out in portions. You can put slices of pickled cucumber next to the potato pile, and sprinkle with chopped green onions on top. Many people like to use this dish with a glass of milk, which significantly softens the taste of the fried product.
