Ever have any leftover baked potatoes and not sure what to do with them ? Well, here's a way they can be used. And if you don't have any leftover baked potatoes, just nuke a couple in the microwave until fork tender. ( If using microwave potatoes, please cool to room temp. ) The amount of servings you get will depend on how many baked potatoes you use.And adjust the amount of salt to your taste.

When oil is hot, add potatoes pieces a few at a time and fry until golden brown.
