These fried potatoes are the best fried potatoes you will ever have in your life. No joke, these things are delicious. You have to make them or be good enough friends with me to have them (I make them every weekend). It is helpful if you own a mandolin (not the instrument). Make sure you use the safety or the tip of your finger might fall off onto your potatoes (true story, but I was slicing a cucumber). I grew up with my Italian Grandmother making them all the time, and the secret ingredient is parsley... oh and obviously BUTTER.
Serves 4
Ingredients:
3 potatoes (sliced thinly)
6-8 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper
bunch of parsley
6 cloves garlic
Directions
Slice potatoes with mandolin. Heat two different frying pans with butter and oil, about 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add 1/4 amount of potatoes in each pan. If you add too many they will steam instead of fry. Add salt and pepper, flip the potatoes every few minutes until they brown. Add parsley (handful or two) and garlic and turn off heat. Keep mixing to cook garlic, but do not burn it! Wipe down both pans and repeat with the other 1/2 of potatoes. Enjoy with a scramble-in, coffee, and some fruit.
