Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are best for this recipe, as they hold their shape well and have a fluffy texture when cooked.
- Cut the potatoes into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
- Soak the potatoes in water before cooking: This will help to remove excess starch and prevent them from sticking together.
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet: This will help to create a crispy crust on the potatoes.
- Cook the potatoes over medium-high heat: This will help to create a crispy crust without burning the potatoes.
- Flip the potatoes frequently: This will help to ensure that they cook evenly.
- Add the butter and herbs towards the end of cooking: This will help to prevent the butter from burning and the herbs from becoming too dry.

Prairie potatoes are a simple but delicious dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or a main course. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
