Hello Everyone. My name is Maria and I, unfortunately, don't know how to cook. I'm tired of eating the same thing all the time. So, I am taking a journey to progressively work on my cooking skills. A little bit at a time. If you have any tips or ideas that will make my experience an easier or more pleasant one, please feel free to let me know. Thank you so much for your time!!!

Country Style Potatoes
Ingredients
3 tablespoons and 1-3/4 teaspoons shortening
4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Directions
In a large cast iron skillet, heat shortening over medium-high heat. Add potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are golden brown. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika. Serve hot.

I have the bad habit of not following recipes to a T. That was the case for this one. I used half shortening and half bacon grease. Also I used no garlic powder and no paprika. (Because I don't currently have any :( ) I did add some complete seasoning and fried it for a long time. I wish I could have fried it for a little longer so it was crispier but it was still good. Next time I'll add bacon!!! Everything is better with bacon!!!!
