We all LOVED these! I did use 1 tablespoon of butter instead of 1 teaspoon, and more salt and pepper than called for, to taste. I was so happy with how crispy ans tasty these turned out. The family is already asking when I'm gonna make them again...A definite keeper~YUM! Thanks for sharing. :)

I made these in my cast iron skillet and used a full tablespoon of butter. They were wonderful! I had a rare evening with just 3 of us to cook for and this was easy enough.  I don't think I would make this for the whole family (7 of us and teenagers who eat like there is no tomorrow) as it would take a lot of time standing at the stove working in batches.

I made these with Red Potatoes and they worked great. Need to adjust the temp so they cook with burning. Thankfully I like my fries crispier than most.

These turned out great and I will definitely be making them again. It was harder than deep fried fries and I had to turn them all individually and keep watch over them to get evenly cooked sides. I had some confusion understanding how to cut the potato into 1/2 inch circles. My husband didn't like these at all but he isn't a french fry fan. I loved them and made 3 potatoes for the 2 of us and it was just right. Thanks Miskyn, these were great!

Delicious and crispy. I only made 1 potato and it only cooked for about 15 minutes.

These turned out really great! I used to bake our homemade fries but in the summer when it's hot & I don't want to heat up the oven I was looking for an easy stovetop version. I found this recipe and I like it even better!!

made these for hubs with his tbone. I asked him for 15 for dinner as a joke he said "it's worth more than that. I would happily pay 30!" followed by "delicious dinner!"

I started off using the olive oil/butter but decided to refill with peanut oil. These were delicious and easy - it didn't take 20 mins for each batch.

Wasn't a fan of these overall. Seemed more like greasy home fries. I precut my potatoes and kept in cold water until I was ready to cook them. Dried the potatoes thoroughly and proceeded with the recipe. It definitely does not take 20-25 minutes per batch to fry. I did drain on paper towels and they seemed to crisp more, but then seemed a bit soggy/limp after. Maybe I did something wrong? Sorry, but this simply wasn't for us.
