Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prep the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into small cubes, about 1-inch in size.

  2. 2

    Boil the Potatoes

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add the cubed potatoes. Boil for 8-10 minutes until slightly tender but not fully cooked. Drain and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.

  4. 4

    Add Garlic and Spices

    Add the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and paprika to the skillet. Stir for 1 minute until fragrant.

  5. 5

    Combine and Cook

    Add the boiled potatoes to the skillet. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.

  6. 6

    Finish with Parsley

    Remove from heat and stir in chopped fresh parsley. Serve hot.
