COUNTRY CUTTER

Back in early fall my son-in-law bought the neatest "gadget" at Homestead Hollow's Fall Arts & Craft Show. He brought it to my house a few weeks back to show me how easy it cuts onions and potatoes. Above he is cutting an onion. He then dipped it in eggs and milk and then flour....dropped it in a deep fryer and look below to see what we had to eat.

These were the BEST onion rings I've ever had. This is from one onion!
Next he cut one potato and look at these "homemade" potato chips! No batter on these....just dropped them in hot oil. I wanted one of the cutters for myself and knew I'd buy one if I ran across them. Guess what?? My daughter was at the Thrift Store last Saturday and found one. It was only $2.88. She gave it to me and now I can fix these any time ........ this could be dangerous!!

I had seen them at War Eagle Fair in War Eagle, Arkansas every year. When our local Applebee's started carrying potato twister I knew I had to have one for myself. I finally bought one this weekend. We used it for onion rings the night I bought them. AMAZING!!!!! I can't wait to make my own potato twisters!!! Now I need the recipe for the white queso dip that Applebee's makes for them. It was a great investment for my unhealthy habit.
