Sautéed potatoes

Sautéed potatoes can be made with new potatoes. They are also good made with old potatoes and can be made all year round, make sure you use a good waxy potato like the Maris Piper or Desirée
so that it holds its shape if you are using an older spud.

INGREDIENTS
Serves 6
1 kilo potatoes
1 knob of butter
2 tbspns olive oil
salt & pepper

1. Boil your potatoes whole until they feel soft with a knife. Drain and cut the potatoes into cubes.
2. Heat a pan, adding olive oil and a knob of butter. Put the potatoes in the pan and cook on a slow to medium heat until the potatoes are crispy and light brown all over. Season and serve.

You can also add other flavours to your potatoes, for example a sprinkle of oregano or rosemary with a couple of cloves of chopped garlic added a couple of minutes to the pan before serving. Or you could fry up some slices of onion to stir in with your potatoes.
