Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Potatoes

    Start by washing and peeling the potatoes. Cut them into even-sized cubes, approximately 1-inch pieces, to ensure they cook evenly.

  2. 2

    Mince the Garlic

    Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. This will help release their flavor when sautéed.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Olive Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Allow it to warm up for about 1-2 minutes.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Garlic

    Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

  3. 5

    Cook the Potatoes

    Add the cubed potatoes to the skillet. Stir to coat them with the garlic and oil, then spread them out in an even layer. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and tender.

  4. 6

    Seasoning

    Sprinkle the paprika, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes. Stir well to mix the seasonings evenly. Continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  5. 7

    Garnish

    Once the potatoes are cooked and seasoned, remove from heat. Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the top of the potatoes before serving.
