Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized, bite-sized pieces (about 3 cm cubes).
Place the potato pieces into a pot and cover them with 500 milliliters of water. Add a pinch of salt, then bring the pot to a boil and cook the potatoes for 4-5 minutes, or until slightly soft but not fully cooked. Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool slightly.
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter is fully melted and starts to sizzle.
Add the par-boiled potatoes to the pan in a single layer, ensuring thereβs enough room for them to brown evenly. Avoid overcrowding the pan.
Cook the potatoes for 6-8 minutes on one side until golden and crispy, then carefully turn them over with a spatula or tongs to fry the other side for an additional 6-8 minutes.
Sprinkle the minced garlic over the potatoes during the last 2 minutes of frying, stirring carefully to prevent the garlic from burning.
Season the potatoes with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and sprinkle the chopped parsley on top. Toss gently to ensure even seasoning.
Remove the rissole potatoes from the skillet and serve hot as a side dish.
