Pan-Fried Red Potatoes

Ingredients

• Red potato

  raw, with skin

  ½ cup, diced or 75g

• Olive oil

  ⅛ tbsp or 2g

• Butter

  unsalted

  ⅛ tbsp or 2g

• Salt

  table

  ¹⁄₁₆ tsp or 0.4g

• Black pepper

  ground

  ¹⁄₁₆ tsp or 0.1g

Directions

1. Scrub the red potatoes and cut into wedges or dice; pat very dry with towels to remove surface moisture.
2. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat until the butter melts and begins to foam.
3. Add the potatoes in a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 3–4 minutes to develop color.
4. Season with the salt and black pepper, then toss to coat evenly.
5. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and crisp on the edges and tender inside, 12–16 minutes more.
6. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, and serve hot.
