Vegetables

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash the Russet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Cut the potatoes into 1/2 inch cubes, keeping the skin on for added texture.

  2. 2

    Soak the Potatoes

    Place the cubed potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and makes them crispier when cooked.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until they are softened and slightly caramelized. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Cook the Potatoes

    Drain and pat dry the soaked potatoes. In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and increase the heat to medium-high. Add the potatoes and season with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir to coat the potatoes evenly.

  3. 5

    Fry the Potatoes

    Cook the potatoes for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are golden brown and crispy. If necessary, lower the heat to prevent burning.

  4. 6

    Combine and Serve

    Once the potatoes are crispy, add the sautéed onions and bell pepper back into the skillet. Toss everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
