Easy Breakfast Potatoes


Description

Quick and comforting breakfast potatoes that are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, perfect for any morning meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 potatoes (cut into 1/2″ cubes – about 600 g total)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley (fresh, or 1/2 tsp dried)

Instructions

  1. Wash and, if desired, peel the potatoes. Cut into 1/2″ cubes and pat dry.
  2. (Optional) Parboil the cubed potatoes in boiling salted water for 5–7 minutes, drain well and let steam off.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add butter and oil; swirl until melted and foamy.
  4. Add the potatoes to the skillet in a single layer. Toss briefly to coat and sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  5. Cover the skillet and let potatoes steam for about 3–4 minutes.
  6. Remove the lid and cook for 12–18 minutes, turning the potatoes every 2–3 minutes until they are golden and crisp.
  7. Once done, remove from heat, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.

Notes

Avoid overcrowding the skillet for better browning. Test doneness by piercing with a fork.
