A Little Story About This Dish…
Potatoes O’Brien is one of the favorite recipes in the “potato repertoire” and is one of the first potato recipes many breakfast cooks ever learn to make.
One of the important “keys” to this recipe is to use the right potato, which is a potato of the “waxy” variety. Waxy potatoes of this nature include white potatoes and red skin potatoes. Both are excellent choices.
Yukon Gold potatoes fall slightly into the “mealy” type variety so you have to be gentle when using these potatoes for Potatoes O’Brien so that they will keep their shape.
Any color of bell peppers will do. Green and Orange (or RED) are the most common as they imitate the colors of the Irish National Flag.
Potatoes O’Brien is often served as a breakfast starch but is appropriate for nearly any dish.
