Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into uniformly-sized cubes, about 1-inch in size, for even cooking.
Step 2
Place the potato cubes in a bowl of cold water and allow them to soak for about 5 minutes. This step helps to remove excess starch and results in crispier potatoes.
Step 3
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 4
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 5
Once the oil is hot, add the potato cubes to the skillet in a single layer. You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your skillet.
Step 6
Allow the potatoes to cook without stirring for about 5 minutes until they start to get golden and crispy on one side.
Step 7
Season the potatoes with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Step 8
Gently flip the potatoes using a spatula and allow them to cook for another 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender.
Step 9
Once cooked to your desired level of crispiness, remove the potatoes from the heat.
Step 10
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
Step 11
Serve immediately as a side dish or alongside your favorite vegan main course.
