Recipe - Cajun Fried Potatoes

4 lg White potatoes, unpared,
scrubbed
Boiling, salted water
One half teaspoon Salt
One fourth teaspoon Ground white pepper
One fourth teaspoon Ground black pepper
One fourth teaspoon Onion powder
One fourth teaspoon Garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon Ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon Ground cayenne pepper
About 2 c. oil, for frying

Cut the potatoes into 1" cubes. Add to boiling salted water. Cook just
until fork tender but not mushy, about 7 minutes. Drain and cool.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the salt, peppers, onion and garlic power,
cumin and cayenne pepper. Add the potatoes to the spices. Toss to coat all
pieces evenly. You may do this much in advance and hold the potatoes as
long as an hour before completing the dish. Heat about 1" oil in a wok or
deep skillet to about 350 degrees or until a piece of potato sizzles when
added to the oil. Add the potatoes. Fry until golden brown on all sides,
turning frequently. Remove from fat, drain and serve immediately.
