Ingredients
- 500 grams Baby potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 pieces Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut any larger ones in half to ensure even cooking. Leave smaller ones whole.
Step 2
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook for 12-15 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
Step 3
While the potatoes are cooking, finely mince the garlic cloves and chop the fresh parsley.
Step 4
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant but not browned.
Step 5
Add the cooked potatoes to the skillet and toss gently to coat them in the garlic oil. Let them cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes to form a golden crust on one side.
Step 6
Sprinkle the smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes. Toss well to coat evenly.
Step 7
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the potatoes. Toss one final time to mix.
Step 8
Serve the garlic potato tapas warm, garnished with extra parsley if desired. Enjoy as a flavorful appetizer or side dish!
