1
Prepare the Potatoes
Scrub the market potatoes under cold running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a paper towel. Cut each potato into halves or quarters, depending on their size, ensuring they are roughly uniform for even cooking.
2
Chop Scallions and Parsley
Thinly slice the scallions, both the white and green parts. Rinse the fresh parsley under cold water, shake off excess water, and chop it finely.

3
Combine Ingredients
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, add the prepared potatoes, scallions, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to coat the potatoes evenly in the oil and seasonings.
4
Cook the Potatoes
Place the pot over low heat. Allow the potatoes to cook slowly in the oil for about 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally. The goal is to cook the potatoes until they are tender and infused with flavor, but not crispy.
5
Add Parsley
Once the potatoes are tender, stir in the chopped parsley. Cook for an additional 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.
6
Serve
Remove the pot from heat. Let the confit potatoes cool slightly before serving. These can be served warm or at room temperature as a delightful side dish.
