Base Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes to ensure even cooking.

  2. 2

    Boil the Potatoes

    Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover them with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook for about 10 minutes until they are just tender but not fully cooked. Drain and let them cool slightly.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.

  2. 4

    Add the Potatoes

    Carefully add the boiled potatoes to the skillet. Spread them out in a single layer to ensure even browning.

  3. 5

    Season the Potatoes

    Sprinkle salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and onion powder over the potatoes. Toss gently to coat evenly.

  4. 6

    Cook Until Crispy

    Cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.

  5. 7

    Add Fresh Parsley

    Once the potatoes are crispy, stir in the chopped fresh parsley and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate the Potatoes

    Transfer the crispy breakfast potatoes to a serving dish.

  2. 9

    Add Optional Toppings

    Top with grated cheese, sour cream, and sliced green onions if desired.

  3. 10

    Serve Hot

    Serve the breakfast potatoes hot and enjoy!
