Today we have a simple and tasty dish - fried potatoes with onions and garlic. I will prepare it in an unusual way: first I boil it a little, literally 5-6 minutes, and only then fry it with onions, garlic and aromatic spices. This allows you to reduce the time it takes to cook potatoes in a frying pan (for me they were ready in 15 minutes). As a result, the potatoes are tender, soft, aromatic and very tasty. It can be served as a separate dish or as a side dish for meat or fish.

I don't know about you, but I just love fried potatoes. Potatoes with garlic remind me of the distant years of my youth, when these potatoes were fried in the dorm, and what mind-blowing smells wafted around.
Potatoes can be made lower in calories if you're really concerned about calories. To do this, just bake it in the oven. But we cook these potatoes in a frying pan with new additives that make the potatoes even more fragrant and golden.
Let's prepare the ingredients for making fried potatoes with garlic and herbs.
Cut the potatoes into slices. I prefer cutting into strips, but this is already a trend of fast food culture, and before they always cut potatoes into slices or rings.
Also cut the garlic into small slices with a knife. It is not forbidden for those who like to increase its quantity. I took the hot pepper to my liking. For those who don’t like it, you don’t have to add it or replace it with black pepper.
Fry the potatoes in vegetable oil until lightly browned, but not cooked. Pour in a little soy sauce. It will give such a pleasant aroma to your potatoes and even sweetness. Add a little salt and stir more often, since soy sauce makes the potatoes easily brown and can burn.
When the potatoes are ready and soft, it's time to add slices of garlic and hot pepper. Stir quickly over heat for 1-2 minutes. And as soon as the smell of garlic spreads throughout the kitchen, you can turn off the heat. Fried potatoes with garlic and herbs are ready.
Serve the potatoes generously sprinkled with herbs. Any fresh salad or homemade pickles go well with it.
Sometimes you can afford such food :))
Bon appetit!
Ready dish
When finished, the dish is a side dish and is served in various variations:
- with meat and meat dishes;
- fish in any form;
- fried and pickled mushrooms;
- with salads;
- fresh and salted vegetables;
- with sauce for potatoes.
Instead of sauce, sour cream, mayonnaise, ketchup or a mixture of ketchup and mayonnaise are suitable. Fried potatoes with garlic are served for lunch or dinner. If the dish is prepared for dinner, it is better not to combine it with meat and mushrooms. The ideal option for dinner is a plate of fried potatoes with a glass of tomato, kefir or fermented baked milk.
The cooking process takes 30-40 minutes including washing and cutting vegetables.
It is very simple to prepare potatoes with garlic, the recipe of which is understandable even to inexperienced cooks. The main thing is not to turn the potato slices into a shapeless mass. They should remain intact and be covered with a delicate golden crust on both sides. To do this, it is important for the housewife to perform all the necessary actions in strict sequence.
