Ingredients

• 500 grams Potatoes (waxy variety, e.g., Yukon Gold)
• 60 grams Butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
• 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
• 500 milliliters Water

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized, bite-sized pieces (about 3 cm cubes).

Step 2

Place the potato pieces into a pot and cover them with 500 milliliters of water. Add a pinch of salt, then bring the pot to a boil and cook the potatoes for 4-5 minutes, or until slightly soft but not fully cooked. Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter is fully melted and starts to sizzle.

Step 4

Add the par-boiled potatoes to the pan in a single layer, ensuring there’s enough room for them to brown evenly. Avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 5

Cook the potatoes for 6-8 minutes on one side until golden and crispy, then carefully turn them over with a spatula or tongs to fry the other side for an additional 6-8 minutes.

Step 6

Sprinkle the minced garlic over the potatoes during the last 2 minutes of frying, stirring carefully to prevent the garlic from burning.

Step 7

Season the potatoes with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and sprinkle the chopped parsley on top. Toss gently to ensure even seasoning.

Step 8

Remove the rissole potatoes from the skillet and serve hot as a side dish.
