Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium (about 1.5 pounds) Yukon Gold potatoes
- 4 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 Garlic cloves
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
Instructions
Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes and rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and parboil them for 5-7 minutes, or until they are just tender but not fully cooked. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the parboiled potatoes in a single layer and cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Season the potatoes with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove them from the skillet and set them aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Prepare the garlic aioli: Finely mince or grate the garlic cloves. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, minced garlic, remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and lemon juice until smooth. Adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt if needed.
Transfer the crispy potatoes to a serving bowl or platter. Drizzle generously with the garlic aioli, or serve the aioli on the side for dipping.
Garnish the potatoes with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and herbaceous flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy this flavorful tapas dish with friends and family!
