Wandering Gypsy Girl Fried Red Potatoes

Red potatoes are small, tender and easily cooked in a variety of ways. One of the great things about them is that you can leave the skins on as they cook up beautifully.

Fried Red Potatoes:

Diced red potatoes
1-2 cloves garlic grated or mashed
olive oil (I like extra virgin)
1-2 pads butter
1/4 cup water
S&P to taste

Add olive oil and butter to a medium sized saute pan over medium heat. Add potatoes, S&P and saute for 3-4 min or until potatoes begin to crisp. Add water and cover with a lid. Steam potatoes until just tender. Remove lid and allow remaining of water to cook off. Add garlic paste to pan and toss thoroughly. Saute potatoes with garlic until fragrant and remove from heat before garlic burns.
Serve warm as a side.
