Medium-low heat is a good temp...keep the potatoes sizzling, they need to crisp on the outside, but they also need to cook through on the inside, otherwise you'll end up with a buch of crispy, raw potato; so go slow, amigo.Mix your potatoes with the grease and spread them out in the skillet and let them brown for about 5 minutes. Add finely chopped onion and hot peppers--if desired, also add a little finely chopped green bell pepper for taste and color--I usually do, but if I don't have it on hand, it's not the end of the world...it's just breakfast, man. Mix the ingredients well and spread out in the skillet and let cook another 5 minutes.Add paprika, stir and continue to cook for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionaly, until the potatoes are cooked through and done to the desired crispness.The key is to not cook the potatoes too fast.
