Peel the potatoes and cut them into 2 cm chunks. Drop them into a bowl of cold water for 5 minutes. This will help get rid of excess starch. Rinse the potatoes and lay them out on a paper-towel lined plate to dry off.

Add a splash of veg oil to a medium nonstick pan on medium heat. Add the potatoes and cover. Let cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are about 3/4 cooked. This will take about 15 minutes.

Remove the cover and turn the heat up to medium-high. Add the butter to the pan. Toss the potatoes in the melting butter. Once the potatoes are brown and crispy, hit them with some seasoning. I used salt, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Be careful not to sprinkle on too much salt; you'll re-salt at the end.

Remove the potatoes to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Hit them with a second sprinkle of salt while they're hot. Garnish however you like and serve immediately.
