Ingredients
  

  • 3-5 Small yellow or red potatoes
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with paper towels. You can peel them if you prefer, but leaving the skins on adds extra texture and nutrients.
  • Add oil to fry pan and turn on the heat to medium.
  • Slice the potatoes into thick rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Place the potatoes in one layer in the fry pan. You may have to cook these in rounds depending on how large your pan is.
  • Let the potatoes cook for five minutes and check the bottom. Flip once they begin to brown. Cook the other side for five minutes.
  • Place the cooked potatoes on paper towels to drain. Add salt and garlic and toss. Serve hot.
