Perfect way to get rid of stale bread if you have it. Older hamburger buns work great. You're toasting it anyways so you don't absolutely need fresh bread...
Ingredients
Bread
Olive Oil (or melted butter)
Garlic powder
Method
Coat bread (soft part) with olive oil or melted butter
Lightly sprinkle garlic powder on bread
Bake for 8-12 minutes at 350 F
Serve
Variations
Use butter instead oil or some mixture
Add some parmesan to oil/butter or sprinkle grated cheese on bread during baking
Pretty much bread oil or butter and Garlic and maybe some Parmesan
One of my favorite ways to make potatoes when I am not in a rush and would like to do other things. Baking time will vary based on how finely your potatoes are chopped. Should come out as a nice golden brown.
Ingredients
Potatoes
Olive Oil
Salt and pepper
Rosemary (fresh or dry)
Method
Peel potatoes
Coarsely chop potatoes
Put in Oven dish
Drizzle potatoes with olive oil and mix up
Season with Rosemary, Salt, and pepper and mix up
Bake for 20 mins at 350 and stir dish preventing potatoes from sticking
Bake another 20 minutes ish and serve.
Some people with unlimited space in their kitchens fry them twice. I dont think this is necessary t just ins't worth it and you need some comfort food. You can control the salt, and even the oil you fry in. But sometimes you just need a cheeseburger and fries.... and not those soggy things that come in the frozen food aisle... When putting your fries in the oil , be careful not to put too many as this will lower the frying oil temperature too much resulting in soggy trash.
Ingredients
Potatoes (preferably big potatoes)
Cooking Oil
Salt
Method
Peel your potatoes (optional)
Chop into fry desired fry shape
Fill a cast iron skillet with maybe a half inch to an inch of oil
Mean while get your cooking oil hot (350-400F ish, I use vegetable or peanut oil ) Smoke is bad
Fry for 5-10 minutes or until light golden brown and floating on the oil for a min
Pat dry or place fries on paper tower to absorb excess oil (try not to stack fries)
Sprinkle with salt
Serve
Variations
Some people with unlimited space in their kitchens fry them twice. I don't think this is necesary
I guess you also could bake them
If baking drizzle with olive oil and lightly salt
