Tips:

  • Use a well-seasoned skillet: This will help the potatoes get crispy and prevent them from sticking.

  • Cook the potatoes in batches if necessary: If you have a lot of potatoes, cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
  • Flip the potatoes frequently: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
  • Add the greens towards the end of cooking: This will help them retain their color and nutrients.
  • Season the potatoes and greens to taste: Use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or other seasonings as desired.
  • Serve the potatoes and greens immediately: They are best when served hot and fresh.
