I’m sure I’m not the only one who has ever visited the odd fast food chain and also enjoyed it.

Without going into details and since there are moments for everything, I will openly admit that I love those potatoes that they prepare in one of those macro-companies of American origin, I am referring to the deluxe potatoes .

It was in this establishment where I tried them for the first time years ago, today it is a dish that we can find in many establishments.

But since I am a kitchenette, what I really love is preparing them at home, with homemade ingredients, Xinzo potatoes, one of the best in Galicia, a good oil to fry them, a mixture of spices that I prepare myself and a rich sauce to accompany them .

Today I leave you the recipe for deluxe potatoes . These potatoes, cooked with their skin, well cleaned and seasoned, tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. Potatoes very well accompanied by a homemade barbecue sauce  or a yogurt or mustard sauce are a delicious and original appetizer.

Also a great garnish to accompany a steak or homemade burgers . I hope you cheer up with them and try them at home.

Tips for perfect Deluxe potatoes

• Cooking them with their skins means that the potatoes absorb much less water during cooking, making them more tender and less brittle.
• Of course we can take it away when we eat them, but in my opinion that would be to lose part of its essence and flavor.
• It is therefore important to wash them thoroughly initially and prepare to enjoy.
