Notes
- It is best to eat these skillet potatoes while still hot but they still taste good at room temperature.
- I have used Russet potatoes in my recipe, however, Red skin potatoes can also be used.
- Try not to overcrowd the potatoes so that they can all cook evenly
- Ensure the potatoes all touch the pan so as to get each of them well browned.
- I know this is a skillet potato recipe, but don't be discouraged if you don't own a skillet. You can still make this in a non-stick pan - yes, I've tried it and it came out beautiful.
