Crispy, Delicious German Fried Potatoes | Bratkartoffeln

[@HokeeDokeyHorses]

Oh how I love your videos! When I was a little girl, we lived in a German village (Gransdorf) and lived in the old bundespost. (My Daddy was in the USAF and was stationed at Spangdahlem). So many memories, and I love your recipes! The food alone would be worth the trip back!

[@OurGabledHome]

Yay! I am so happy to hear you're enjoying my videos and they're bringing back good memories 😊 🇩🇪 ~ Anja

On my, My dad was Airforce and we were on the same base. This was in the 70’s. So cool! @hokeedokeyhorses

My momma used to make fried potatoes with onions. I didn't know they were part of our German heritage! 💛

[@OurGabledHome]

Yes, adding onions is very common in Germany 😊 ~ Anja

[@bonnie5601]

@@OurGabledHome If my father didn’t add the onions to the potatoes and we were having eggs, he fried the onions first and added them when he was making scrambled eggs.

Fried Potatoes....Thank you again for this recipe. They look Delicious.

[@shaunamills5655]

Reminds me of my Oma’s. Fried onions and potatoes

[@readytogo3186]

My mama used to fry onions and potatoes together. I really liked that. Don't know where she learned it. May have just done it because it sounded good. Anyway, I'm an old lady now and still do that. Mama didn't cook them first; just raw potatoes and raw onions. That's the way I still fry them. Yummmm!

[@wesdonze2014]

I enjoy these and prepare them regularly and sometimes just with onion and tomato, and sometimes with a salad, or some salmon

[@michellebridges2604]

Oh my husband will love these!!!

[@OurGabledHome]

Thank you! Hope you'll give these a try soon 😊 ~ Anja

[@Mc9y]

You are such good cooking you do with love! My mom and grandma cook like you

[@melaniehopkins7541]

Yum! My mouth was watering as I watched!

[@Rosesandtea]

I just cooked fried potatoes for lunch, and then afterwards watched your noodle casserole video! I plan on making the casserole tonight. Now here you come with fried potatoes video! I look forward to watching it after my nap!

[@OurGabledHome]

Yay! I am so glad you're enjoying my videos 😃 ~ anja

[@RobertWilke]

This brings back memories of my grandfather. He lived with us and when i was with him during the day. He would make something like this and call it Kaiser Wilhelm potatoes. Always tasty and would hit the spot.

[@OurGabledHome]

So nice to hear that this brings back the memories of your grandfather 😊 ~ Anja

[@karenbrumley8095]

Can you peel them before you boil them

[@deepblue25]

Well you could, but boiling them with the skin adds a lot to the rustic flavor of this dish.

[@OurGabledHome]

You could but they might fall apart, get more wetter and lose flavor 😊 ~ Anja

[@ilsehunt6798]

Love bratkartoffeln I add eggs and speck and puffa yummy

[@OurGabledHome]

So good!

[@32a34a]

These also make a good midnight snack for folk who are prowling the midnight hour.

[@OurGabledHome]

That's good to know!

[@rem1249]

If you want to use butter, you can do it in the form of Ghee. It works with high heat and you can have the buttery flavor

[@rough-hewnhomestead5737]

Looks SO good! I can't eat much fat...wonder if I could get this crisp using a small amount of stock or water?

[@cheritamd7406]

I don’t think that will work. You will end up steaming them. As far as I know moisture is the enemy of browning. There are oils that provide a more healthy fat content. I would just say to just have a smaller portion and/or make them an occasional food.

[@OurGabledHome]

You could add water or broth but then they won’t get crispy ~ Anja

[@melanytodd2929]

I brush potato slices with a teeny bit of oil, and bake them in a hot oven. Not quite as delicious, but...🤷‍♀️

[@laurac5451]

I thought I was making cottage fries and here I've been making German fried potatoes

[@daphnerodriguez9980]

THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟 DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜,

[@OurGabledHome]

You are so welcome!

[@Boss_Lady1]

The same way they do it in Holland. But thanx for the video.

[@OurGabledHome]

Good to know 👍 and glad you enjoyed it 😊 ~ Anja

[@GoingGreenMom]

We did the less pretty variety most of the time.... toss in some chicken or turkey and have hash. Dad would occasionally do it the other way though.

[@OurGabledHome]

Yes, my mom always just tossed all the potatoes in the skillet - some were crisp and others weren't but it was still delicious 😊 ~ Anja

[@etm567]

I make ghee, which is very high heat. We also have peanut oil. But you are wrong about even heat in cast iron. It does not heat evenly, but retains heat better than anything else.

[@JanetJames-dw6xo]

Can't believe I just watched for 7 minutes you make egg and chips lol.

[@gumse666]

Try it with a pinch of cumin.

[@OurGabledHome]

Thanks for the tip!

[@hoschij.8355]

Schade, ich glaube Muttis Bratkartoffeln wären besser angekommen 😉😂

[@ich8159]

Die sind völlig ungewürzt. Kein Speck, Pfeffer, Majoran oder irgend etwas…

[@turdoirishman]

Jau, die sind eher zum Abgewöhnen.
