lovey potatoes

These potatoes are a little novelty to make whenever you want to send a little love. Yes, heart-shaped sliced potatoes…you are seeing correctly.

You can easily create the shape with a heart cookie cutter. You can make just a few hearts and mix with a regular slices or be ambitious and do the whole potato.

For the scraps, or extras from cutting out the hearts, slice into thin strips and also saute’ – we don’t want to waste anything on a good potato.

thoughts&stories

My grandmother always called us lovey.  Rarely can I remember her calling any of us by our first name. She also was everything a grandmother should be and spoiled us tremendously.

These potatoes are in memory of her and all the more special because her birthday was on Valentine’s Day.

Ingredients

Directions

1
Done

Take your potato slices and decide how many heart shapes you would like to cut out.

2
Done

Using a heart cut out sized appropriately for potato (about 2 inches for mine), cut out shape.

3
Done

Take extra potato, that was around the heart and cut into thin strips.

4
Done

Heat vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.

5
Done

When oil becomes hot enough (test with an extra piece of potato, it should start to sizzle), place potatoes into oil, keep in a single layer.

6
Done

Cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes, and turn over with a tong or spatular.

7
Done

Work in batches, adjusting heat and oil as necessary, and placing cooked potato slices on a plate lined with paper towel (kitchen roll) to absorb extra oil.

8
Done

When finished, toss with salt and serve immediately.
