Hazırlanışı

Adım adım

1
Place the cubed potatoes in a medium pot and add enough cold water to cover them by about an inch.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
2
Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer. Cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 10-15 minutes.
Yaklaşık 15 dk.
Aşçının notu: Be careful not to overcook the potatoes; they should hold their shape and not be mushy.
3
Drain the potatoes thoroughly in a colander and let them sit for a couple of minutes to allow excess moisture to steam away.
Yaklaşık 2 dk.
Aşçının notu: Dry potatoes will become crispier when fried.
4
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
Yaklaşık 2 dk.
5
Carefully add the drained potatoes to the hot pan in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd it.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
Aşçının notu: If necessary, fry the potatoes in two batches to ensure they all brown evenly.
6
Fry the potatoes, turning them occasionally, until they are golden brown and crisp on all sides, which should take about 8-10 minutes.
Yaklaşık 10 dk.
7
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the potatoes from the pan to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
8
Transfer the hot potatoes to a serving bowl, sprinkle with salt, and add the optional ground cumin, ground coriander, and black pepper. Toss gently to combine.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
9
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if using, and serve immediately.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
