If you love the leftover crispy pieces of potatoes left in the pan then this is one you will enjoy! --- the potatoes must be cooked and completely cold before slicing which makes this the perfect recipe to use up leftover potatoes, I love making this with leftover potatoes from a roast they have so much flavor --- make lots or make a small amount I always make lots my family loves these better than fries! --- prep time does not include boiling the potatoes.

Tips:

  • For the crispiest potatoes, use Yukon Gold or russet potatoes.
  • Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces so they cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the potatoes. Give them enough space to brown and crisp.
  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or a non-stick skillet for best results.
  • Don't stir the potatoes too often while they're cooking. This will prevent them from getting crispy.
  • Add your favorite seasonings to the potatoes for extra flavor. Garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and chili powder are all great options.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately after cooking for the best flavor and texture.
