Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into small cubes, approximately 1/2 inch on each side.
Place the diced potatoes in a large pot and fill with enough cold water to cover. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil over high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let simmer for about 5 minutes or until the potatoes are just tender but not fully cooked.
Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them air dry and cool for a few minutes. This helps in achieving crispiness.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes in a single layer, ensuring they have enough room to fry without overcrowding the pan.
Cook the potatoes without stirring for 5-7 minutes or until the bottom is golden and crispy. Gently flip the potatoes to cook another side, possibly using a spatula for even cooking.
Sprinkle salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder over the potatoes. Stir gently, making sure the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Continue cooking and occasionally flipping the potatoes for another 10-15 minutes until they are crispy on all sides.
Once done, remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve the sugar-free crispy homefries immediately, hot and delicious.
