Another dish that takes me back in time is the sfincione potatoes. As my mother taught me, it’s another comfort food dish I tried to make
My husband and my children said they were very good and that they came out tasty, but I realized that they could never be like my mom’s. She makes it a little better, even if we have the same ingredients and techniques.
What I or anyone else cooks can never compare to my mom’s cooking; she’s got a gift.
The original recipe for sfincione potatoes wants the potatoes to be cut raw, placed in the pan, seasoned with onion sauce, and placed in the oven. You can first boil the potatoes if you want to speed up cooking.
