  • GumbyQ,
    Mamaw's German Potato Salad
    This is the one non traditional dish
    · 4 C cooked potatoes, cubed
    · 8 slices bacon, cooked crisp (important for flavor) & crumbled
    · 1 C celery, chopped fine
    · 3 green (spring) onions chopped tops and all
    Combine all ingredients & put in baking dish.
    Topping
    · ½ C mayonnaise
    · ¼ C white vinegar
    · 2 tsp sugar (Hawaiian)
    · 1 tsp mustard (French's of other liquid cheap)
    · 1 tsp salt (kosher)
    · ¼ tsp cracked black pepper
    Combine all and pour over potato mix and bake @ 350* for 20 min. Egg or K is best but oven will do.
    As an aside: My Grandmother and Grandfather on my fathers side lived on Barcus Creek outside of the small town of Whitter, NC. We knew them as Mamaw & Papaw (This is Cherokee for your grandparents if I remember correctly and has nothing to do with the recipe)[p]Elder Ward

    GumbyQ,
    try a variation of hashbrowns. slice red bell peppers into long strips. lay theses 2-3 pieces in skillet then cover with shredded potatoe and leak. use various color peppers to make decorative design.

    GumbyQ,[p]Here is one we enjoy from the oven:[p]Potatoes Romanoff[p]4 Cups potato, 1 inch cubes
    4 Tbsps unsalted butter
    1 1/2 Cup sour cream
    1 bunch green onion, sliced (whites and greens)
    2 c mild cheddar cheese
    1 tsp kosher salt
    1/8 tsp white pepper
    paprika, to taste[p]Peel and boil potatoes until tender. Mash with butter, sour cream, onions, 1 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, salt and pepper. Turn mixture into a buttered 2 quart casserole dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheese and paprika. Bake uncovered at 350°F for 40 minutes.[p]Spin

  • GumbyQ,[p]Here is another one we got from Spin. We eat these ALL the time. We usually use about 2 CUPS of cheese though. :-)[p]
    Ingredients:
    • 4 Red Potatoes
    • 6 Tbs Olive oil
    • 4 tsp Butter
    • 2 Oz Mozzarella cheese (finely grated)
    • Pinch Emerils Essence spice mixture (recipe available at foodtv.com)
    • Dash Salt
    • Pinch Cracked pepper
    Preparation Directions:[p]• Clean and cut potatoes into 6 wedges each. Add olive oil to a glass baking pan or pie pan. Coat one side of each wedge by setting it in the oil and then place them (coated side up) in the pan. Lightly salt, pepper, and sprinkle with essence. Place the butter evenly dispursed on top of the wedges. [p]Cooking Directions:
    • Cook at 325F for 20 minutes. Remove from EGG and flip each wedge. Add equal amounts of the cheese on top of each wedge. Return to EGG. Cook for another 20 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and browning. [p]Special Instructions:
    • To prepare as an appetizer, omit the cheese and cook at 375F. This will produce a french fry crust to the wedge. For a spicier wedge add another pinch of essence when the wedges are turned. [p]
