Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet)
- 10 leaves Fresh sage leaves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 cloves Garlic (optional)
Instructions
Wash, peel, and cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potato cubes and parboil for 5-7 minutes until they are just tender but still hold their shape.
Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them cool for 5 minutes to remove excess moisture.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and gently bubbling.
Add the sage leaves to the skillet and fry them for 1 minute until crispy and aromatic. Remove the sage leaves with a slotted spoon and set them aside on a paper towel for garnish.
Add the potatoes to the skillet in a single layer. Allow them to cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes until the bottoms are golden and crispy.
Flip the potatoes gently using a spatula and cook the other sides for another 5-7 minutes, ensuring they are evenly browned.
Season the potatoes with salt and black pepper. If using, mince the garlic and add it to the skillet during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
Toss the potatoes gently with the crispy sage leaves and serve hot.
