Tangy Pan Fried Potatoes at The Happy Housewife

I love potatoes, baked, fried, boiled, diced, sliced, and mashed. They are one of my favorite foods. When I was given a Nakano rice vinegar cookbook I took one look at the tangy pan-fried potato recipe and knew I needed to try it and share it with you all. I changed it up a little, but I think you will love it!

Tangy Pan Fried Potatoes

Course: Side Dish
Author: Toni Anderson

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds peeled and diced potatoes
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons minced garlic
  • 2 jalapenos chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon salt
  • 1 Tablespoon paprika
  • 4 Tablespoons butter
  • 3/4 cup Nakano Seasoned Rice Vinegar
  • 3 Tablespoons water

Instructions

  • Mix the peeled and diced potatoes with the onion, garlic, jalapenos, salt, and paprika.
  • Fry on the stove with butter for 15 minutes. Stir frequently and don’t overload your pan. You might need two pans depending on how big of a pan you are using.
  • After 15 minutes, add Nakano Rice Vinegar and water. Cook for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with paprika and serve. I added some chopped chicken to the potatoes when I added the rice vinegar and water because we were eating it as a meal and not a side.

I loved the flavor the rice vinegar added to the potatoes. It was delicious and everyone who tried it loved this tangy dish. I don’t cook with vinegar very often, but I really loved the taste and think I’ll start using it in more of my recipes.

I think using vinegar as a dressing on vegetables is a great way to get picky eaters to try something new as well. Even one of my non-potato loving kids tried these potatoes and liked them.

    My favorite tip (and one I have to try soon!) is stirring it into mayo or Dijon mustard for a sandwich spread.

    Favorite tip: mix with mayo to make a sandwich spread. We use this vinegar often for bean/corn salads, splashed on mixed salad greens, and when we make cucumber/onion salad. Yum.

    I love both the tip about putting some vinegar in the BBQ sauce and the Mayo for a sandwich spread. I normally use vinegar just in salads, but now I have some new ways to use it thanks to your review and give away!
