Potluck Recipe #15: Austin's Fried Potatoes

Chef Austin brings us this week's recipe, a simple and delicious presentation of potatoes that's perfect for a brunch potluck benefiting Open Arms. The mix of nutmeg, cumin and coriander is the key to making this dish memorable -- the attendees of the Breast Cancer Ride kick-off event are still asking for this recipe weeks after Austin made it for them!
