Preparation

Fried potatoes

1. Wash and brush the potatoes. Wipe them off well. Brush them with olive oil. Prick the potatoes with a fork in three or four places on each side to allow the steam to escape.
2. Place the potatoes on a microwave-safe plate and cook for about 5 to 7 minutes. Cooking will vary depending on the size of the potatoes. Cook for 5 minutes and check if they are well cooked. If not fully cooked, turn them over and continue cooking in one-minute sequences.
3. Slice the potatoes lengthwise.
4. In a skillet, heat the oil.
5. Brown the cooked potatoes on both sides.
6. Set aside.
