How to Make Country Taters
- In a large iron skillet or heavy skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of bacon grease over medium heat. Add the chopped green onions and sauté until tender but not browned (about 2-3 minutes). Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the quartered potatoes, flour, salt, and pepper. Stir until the potatoes are evenly coated.
- Add the sautéed green onions and milk to the bowl. Gently toss to combine.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of bacon grease in the same skillet over medium-low heat.
- Pour the potato mixture into the skillet. Using a pancake turner or spatula, press the potatoes down firmly and evenly to distribute them in a single layer.
- Cook over low heat for 15-20 minutes, undisturbed, until the potatoes are lightly browned on the bottom.
- Carefully flip the potatoes using the pancake turner. Cook for another 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
- Remove the Country Taters from the skillet and serve hot. Enjoy!
