French Potatoes

One time we had Sunday dinner at my grandma's house which is always a good time. Always great food and great people. She tried a new recipe with her potatoes and they were good! At home I tweaked them a little bit and I call them French potatoes because it sounds fancy and I didn't know what else to call them. It's super easy and they're delish but it is a little time consuming. Mostly down time while they cook so it's easy, don't worry!

Ingredients:
8 medium red potatoes
3 T butter
1 medium shallot, diced
Plenty of salt and pepper

Cut potatoes into quarters and put into a pot filled with cold water. Salt the water very well and turn on high to boil potatoes. When they are not quite fork tender, turn the heat off and remove from heat. Drain potatoes. In a large skillet, begin to melt butter over medium high heat. Once melted, keep over heat and swirl the pan around a few times until the butter starts to turn brown. You will be able to smell the change before you see it. Once it's browned, carefully add the potatoes to the butter. Season well with salt and pepper. Stir potatoes up to coat in butter and salt and pepper. Let them sit so they can brown up nicely. After a few minutes, stir them up again to brown another side. When they are almost done, add the shallots and let cook for just a minute. Remove from heat and serve
