Preparation of Pan-Fried Roasted Potatoes
Peel the potatoes, wash them well, cut them into small cubes, and place them in a bowl, cover them with cold water and leave them to rest like this for 15 minutes (a trick to keep them crispy on the outside and soft on the inside!).
After the 15 minutes of soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels (or alternatively with a clean cloth).
Peel the garlic clove and put it in the pan with the oil, heat over medium heat and add the potatoes, salt and mix, let them cook over medium heat for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally (if you see them slightly sticking to the bottom of the pan, don’t worry, it’s normal).
For the last 10 minutes, cook on high heat stirring often, the pan-fried roasted potatoes will be ready when they have formed that delicious crust! Serve them hot and steaming, they will be a hit and you’ll lick your chops!
Variations
