Hot Potatoes (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves.
02 - 1 teaspoon black pepper.
03 - 2 cups buttermilk.
04 - 1 teaspoon kosher salt.
05 - 3-4 medium Russet potatoes, sliced into ¼-inch rounds.
06 - 2 teaspoons granulated onion.
07 - 1 teaspoon hot sauce.
08 - ½ teaspoon dried oregano.
09 - 2 teaspoons granulated garlic.
10 - 1 teaspoon dry mustard powder.
11 - ¼ teaspoon ground thyme.
12 - 2 teaspoons paprika.
13 - 1 tablespoon light brown sugar.
14 - 3 tablespoons cayenne pepper.
15 - ½ teaspoon chili powder.
16 - ¼ teaspoon garlic powder.
17 - 2 cups all-purpose flour.
18 - Vegetable oil to fry.
19 - ¾ cup hot frying oil.
20 - ½ teaspoon paprika.

# Instructions:

01 - Throw potatoes into buttermilk with seasonings, mix well, and leave in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (but not more than 2 hours).
02 - Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Want extra crunch? Toss in a little buttermilk—around 3 tablespoons.
03 - Give each potato slice a nice dusting in the flour blend. Then let them sit for 10 minutes to dry a bit.
04 - Warm up oil to 365°F and fry those coated potatoes in portions until they’ve got a golden color, about 3-4 minutes each. Keep ‘em warm in a 200°F oven.
05 - Stir together spices, brown sugar, and some of that hot frying oil. Drizzle it over the fried potatoes.

# Notes:

01 - A meat-free take on Nashville’s spicy hot chicken.
02 - Don’t let it sit in the marinade longer than 2 hours.
