Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Peel them if preferred, or leave the skins on for extra texture.
Dice the potatoes into small 1-inch cubes to ensure even cooking.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add a pinch of salt, and parboil the potato cubes for 5 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
While the potatoes cool, mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the fresh parsley.
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the parboiled potato cubes to the skillet in a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes to allow a crispy crust to form on the bottom.
Toss the potatoes gently and cook them for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until evenly golden and crisp.
Reduce the heat to medium, then add the minced garlic, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat the potatoes evenly with the seasoning.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant and lightly golden but not burnt.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the potatoes with the fresh parsley.
Serve hot as a delicious side dish for breakfast or brunch. Enjoy!
