Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Baby potatoes
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 Garlic cloves
- 2 tsp Freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and leave the skins on. Cut them in half for even cooking.
Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil, then add the potatoes and a pinch of salt. Boil for 8–10 minutes until slightly tender but not fully cooked.
Drain the potatoes in a colander and allow them to steam dry for 5 minutes.
While the potatoes are drying, finely chop the garlic cloves and parsley. Set them aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
Add the potatoes to the skillet in a single layer, cut side down. Let them cook undisturbed for 5–7 minutes until the bottoms are golden and crispy.
Sprinkle the potatoes with salt, cracked black pepper, and paprika. Stir gently to coat the potatoes evenly with the seasonings.
Add the chopped garlic to the pan and sauté for 1–2 minutes, being careful not to burn it.
Remove the skillet from the heat and toss with the fresh parsley.
Serve hot as a side dish or enjoy on their own as a snack.
