How to Make Pan Fried Potatoes
Peel and slice the potatoes into bite size pieces. Can be thinly sliced semi-circles, wedge style, or cut like fries.
Heat the oil in over medium-high heat in a frying pan. Carefully add the potatoes into the hot oil. Keep uncovered.
Fry potatoes until crispy about 20 minutes. Do not constantly or rapidly stir potatoes, waiting 3-4 minutes before flipping. You want a crispy crust to form on the potatoes.
At the halfway point of frying potatoes, add the sliced onions to the potatoes. Continue to cook until the potatoes are crispy.
Salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with chopped fresh dill or green onions.
