Fried potatoes are a fantastic, starchy side dish for any type of meal that involves a protein or vegetable-rich main course.
While traditional french fries are probably more popular, home fries are another great savory complement to your meals.
You can eat them with bacon and eggs for breakfast, or serve them with hamburgers at dinner. Let’s find out how to make them!
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized potatoes
- Olive oil
- Sea salt
- Black Pepper
- Garlic Powder
- Rosemary
- 1 medium red onion
Start off by washing the two potatoes and then chopping them into small, bite-sized pieces. They shouldn’t be too thick–if they are, they won’t cook all the way through.
Once the potatoes have been chopped up, place them in a medium-sized bowl. Pour olive oil into the bowl, using a quantity sufficient enough to give all of the potato pieces a light coating.
After you’ve coated the pieces in olive oil, sprinkle sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and rosemary on them to taste. Toss the potatoes to ensure an even coating.
Also, chop up the red onion into very small pieces and set aside.
Place a large skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium to medium-high (usually a 6). Put the potato pieces in the pan and leave them to cook for about 5 minutes, turning often.
Once the potatoes have been in the pan for about five minutes, add the red onion. Continue to stir and flip the potato pieces until they are golden-brown and soft throughout.
Take them out of the pan, and serve. Yum!
