Fingerling potatoes are a great thing. They have such great potato taste. I try to substitute them for “regular” potatoes whenever I can just to get that extra potato punch. This time I decided to make home fries (that I usually make with russets) with fingerling potatoes instead and boy was I ever happy with the difference! Simply using a different potato really makes a big difference in this dish.

This recipe for home fries really lets that fingerling potato flavor shine. Also try my spicy home fries.

Add the potatoes to the pan, toss with the onions, and flatten them out to cover the bottom of the pan.
