Home Fries Ingredients

Method

Home Fries Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into small cubes, about 1/2 inch in size.

  2. 2

    Boil the Potatoes

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the cubed potatoes and cook for 5-7 minutes until slightly tender but still firm. Drain and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and bell pepper, and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until soft.

  4. 4

    Fry the Potatoes

    Add the boiled potatoes to the skillet. Sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine, and cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
