Home Style Fries

Easy peasy lemon squeezie...this is a quick and easy side dish that can be made with pretty much anything.  I might even try it with fresh thyme.  The frost missed us this week so I still have my herbs on the deck!

1 1/2lb. russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes
1/4 vegetable oil (I might swap in olive oil here simply because I like the flavor better)
1 tsp. dried thyme
salt and black pepper to taste

Boil potatoes in salted water for 5 minutes, drain well.

Heat oil in large non stick skillet over medium high heat.  Add parboiled potatoes and saute 5 minutes without stirring. Stir and cook another 7 minutes until golden.

Season with thyme, salt, and pepper.
