Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams small potatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
- 1 sprig fresh thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parsley
Instructions
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Cut them into uniform cubes, about 1-inch in size, to ensure they cook evenly.
Finely mince the garlic cloves and set aside. Strip the rosemary and thyme leaves from their stems and chop them finely.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
Add the cubed potatoes to the skillet, spreading them out evenly across the surface. Let them cook undisturbed for 5 minutes to develop a nice golden crust.
Stir the potatoes gently and add the chopped rosemary and thyme. Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the potatoes.
Continue to cook the potatoes, stirring occasionally, for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and golden brown on all sides.
Taste the potatoes and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Remove from heat and sprinkle the finely chopped parsley over the potatoes before serving.
Serve the low-fat sauteed potatoes warm as a side dish to your favorite main course or enjoy them on their own.
