Home Fries Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into small cubes, about ½ inch in size.

  2. 2

    Parboil the Potatoes

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add the cubed potatoes. Boil for about 5-7 minutes until slightly tender but not fully cooked. Drain and let them cool.

  3. 3

    Cook the Onions

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Fry the Potatoes

    Add the cooled potatoes to the skillet with the onions. Sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper over the potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Once the potatoes are crispy, remove from heat and stir in fresh parsley. Adjust seasoning to taste and serve hot.
