Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, use small, waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or fingerling potatoes. These potatoes hold their shape well and won't fall apart during cooking.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If you're using a knife, cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. If you're using a food processor, use the slicing blade to cut the potatoes into even slices.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking the potatoes, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly. Cook the potatoes in batches if necessary.
  • Use a well-seasoned pan: A well-seasoned pan will help prevent the potatoes from sticking. If you don't have a well-seasoned pan, you can grease it with cooking spray or olive oil before cooking the potatoes.
  • Cook the potatoes until they're tender: The potatoes are done cooking when they're tender when pierced with a fork. Depending on the size of the potatoes, this could take anywhere from 15 to 20 minutes.

Conclusion:

Patates Yiahni is a delicious and easy-to-make Greek dish that's perfect for any occasion.
