Ingredients
- 4 pieces medium-sized potatoes
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.25 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Begin by washing and peeling the potatoes. Cut them into 1/4-inch thick slices or half-moons to ensure even cooking.
Step 2
Place the potato slices in a large bowl of cold water. Let them sit for about 5 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Step 3
In a large non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot, but not smoking, before adding the potatoes.
Step 4
Carefully add the dried potato slices to the skillet in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. You may need to cook them in batches.
Step 5
Sprinkle the potatoes with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder for seasoning. Add the red chili flakes for a bit of heat, if desired.
Step 6
Cook the potatoes without stirring for 5-7 minutes, allowing them to develop a golden-brown crust on the bottom.
Step 7
Flip the potatoes using a spatula, and continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes, or until the other side is crispy and golden-brown.
Step 8
Once cooked through and crisped to your liking, remove the potatoes from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Step 9
Garnish the potatoes with freshly chopped parsley before serving for a burst of color and freshness.
Step 10
Serve the pan-fried potatoes hot as a side dish to complement your meal.
