Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 0.5 cup Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
1. Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into even-sized chunks, approximately 1-inch in size, ensuring they cook evenly.
2. Place the potatoes in a pot of salted cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook for about 5 minutes. The potatoes should be par-cooked and slightly tender but not mushy.
3. Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them sit for a few minutes to dry out completely. This step is crucial for achieving maximum crispiness.
4. In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Test the oil temperature by dropping in a small piece of potato; it should sizzle immediately.
5. Carefully add the potatoes to the skillet in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the pan as this will cause steaming rather than frying.
6. Let the potatoes cook without stirring for about 5 minutes, allowing them to form a golden-brown crust on one side.
7. Gently flip the potatoes with a spatula or a slotted spoon. Continue cooking and occasionally stirring, ensuring all sides become crispy and browned evenly. This should take about 15-20 minutes.
8. Season the potatoes with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika, tossing them well to distribute the seasoning evenly.
9. Once the potatoes are beautifully golden and crispy, remove them from the heat and transfer them to a serving platter lined with a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
10. Garnish the potatoes with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your dairy-free crispy fried potatoes!
