Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into 1/2-inch cubes. Rinse the cubed potatoes under cold water to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Peel and finely dice the red onion. Mince the garlic cloves. Remove the seeds and stem from the red bell pepper, then chop it into small pieces.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes, spreading them into a single layer. Cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes start to turn golden brown.
While the potatoes are cooking, chop the fresh parsley finely and set it aside.
Once the potatoes are golden, push them to one side of the skillet. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the empty side of the skillet. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the oil, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they become soft and the onions turn translucent.
Stir everything together, combining the sautéed onion and pepper with the potatoes. Add the minced garlic, paprika, ground black pepper, and salt. Continue to cook and stir for another 3-5 minutes to let the flavors meld and the potatoes crisp up.
Once the potatoes are crispy and cooked through, remove the pan from heat. Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the home fries and give them a final stir.
Serve the vegan home fries hot as a side dish or a part of a hearty vegan breakfast.
