Potato Ribbons Recipe

Wash and peel ½ a dozen big kidney potatoes, and let them lie in cold water for a few minutes. Cut them into ribbons, round and round, like an apple, and keep the strips as nearly as feasible of one width. They must not be too thin or they will break. Fry them in plenty of hot fat until they are lightly browned. Drain them on a wire sieve, and sprinkle a small amount of pepper and salt over them. Serve on a hot dish. Time to fry, eight or ten minutes. Sufficient for three or four persons.
