Potatoes roasted in a pan are a delicious summer dish that any self-respecting home cook should be able to cook, even the very young one. I learned to fry young potatoes in my childhood, when the process of obtaining food from raw foods without my mother's help was not fully mastered. It was scary to cook meat, chicken and fish, and young people want to eat all the time during the holidays. Young potatoes are available and easy to prepare, like scrambled eggs.
The ideal summer seasonings for this dish are young garlic and fresh dill, if there is a stash of lightly-salted cucumbers, then lunch is a success!
For cooking, choose small tubers, you can take the smallest fines, which will be cooked in a few minutes, and also quickly browned in a skillet.

Ingredients for New Potatoes Fried in a Frying Pan
- 1 kg of new potatoes;
- 35 g butter;
- 20 g of vegetable oil;
- 4 cloves of garlic;
- 1 bunch of dill;
- salt, parsley.
Method of cooking new potatoes roasted in a frying pan
Pour the potatoes into the pot, pour cold water, leave for a few minutes. Take a sponge for washing dishes with an abrasive layer, carefully wash the tubers, then rinse with running water. You do not need to peel the skin off of a young potato, it has a lot of useful things, nutritionists everywhere convince to cook and eat potatoes with skin.
Wash the washed tubers with warm water so that they are 1-2 centimeters under the water, add some parsley to the pan, set on fire, bring to a boil. Cook on moderate heat for 15-20 minutes. Readiness is checked with a wooden splinter - the splinter enters the ready potato without hindrance.
Drain the water, warm the tubers in a saucepan so that they dry out and the water droplets evaporate.
Pour vegetable oil into the pan, put the butter, melt. If you fry only in butter, it can be smoky, as the cream burns easily. You can fry new potatoes in melted butter, in this case you do not need to add vegetable.
Throw boiled potatoes in hot oil, fry until golden brown on one side.
Shake the pan or turn the tubers with a spatula on the other side, fry until golden brown on medium heat. It will take 2-3 minutes, no more.
Cut a bunch of fresh dill. Garlic teeth cleaned from the husk, chopped. Throw dill and garlic into the frying pan.
Pour salt to your liking. Shake the pan so that the seasonings are mixed with oil and potatoes, warm up for 1 minute, remove from heat.
On the table, new potatoes, roasted in a pan, serve hot. An amazing thing, usually fried potatoes - this is a side dish, but if it's a young fried potato, then for a tasty lunch it is enough to serve it with a slice of fresh bread and a cup of cold kefir. Enjoy your meal!
By the way, for lovers of food with peppercorn, you can sprinkle the finished dish with a pinch of chili.
Pork goulash fits perfectly with this side dish, try cooking!
