Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 3 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large bowl of cold water to remove excess starch. Let sit for 10 minutes, then drain and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the fresh parsley. Set them aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the butter, allowing it to melt and combine with the oil.
Add the potato cubes to the skillet in a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes until the bottoms are golden and crispy.
Flip the potato cubes using a spatula, and cook them on the other sides for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned and cooked through.
Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the minced garlic, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the potatoes, along with the salt and black pepper. Toss everything together to coat the potatoes evenly.
Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to meld the flavors before removing the skillet from the heat.
Serve the garlicky parsley fried potatoes immediately as a side dish or enjoy them on their own. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.
