Crispy Pan-Fried Potatoes

I often cook potatoes in the microwave to save time, so I make fried potatoes this way too. It's a bother to take care of the oil after deep frying, so I just panfried the potatoes in olive oil for a crispy finish.

Cook the potatoes in the microwave until soft, then cook the surface until crispy in a frying pan.
The microwaving time varies depending on your microwave, so please adjust it.
Add some salt or herbs to vary the flavor. For an easy-to-make amount (about 2 servings). Recipe by yaburie

  2. 2 tbspOlive oil
  3. 1/2 tspSalt
  4. 1 tspDried basil or parsley

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash the potatoes well, wrap individually in plastic wrap, and microwave for 4 to 5 minutes at 600 W. The potatoes are done if a skewer goes through them easily.

    Unwrap the potatoes and let them cool down. Remove any eyes, and cut into 6 to 8 wedges each.

  3. 3

    Heat the olive oil in a frying pan, add the potato wedges and pan fry until golden brown. Turn them to brown on all sides.

  4. 4

    When the wedges are browned all over, season with salt and dried basil. Shake the pan to distribute the seasonings evenly, then turn off the heat.

  5. 5

    Transfer to serving plates. These are great as a snack when you're a bit hungry, or to accompany hamburgers or fried chicken.
