Ingredients

  • 10 Small round potatoes, peeled

Seasonings

  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp oregano
  • 1/4 tsp thyme
  • 1/4 tsp marjoram
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

Sauce

  • 1/4 cup vegetable broth

Instructions

  • Cook potatoes first (steam or microwave) until almost done but not yet (about 5 minutes).
  • Place the potatoes into a pre-heated pan and stir fry in a bit of olive oil until browned.
  • Add seasonings (garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, thyme, marjoram, smoked paprika).
  • Add a bit of vegetable broth, stir to coat all the potatoes, allow liquid to decrease a bit until it makes a sauce.
  • Transfer the potatoes from the pan into a heat-proof serving dish so they do not overcook and the sauce stays the right consistency. If kept in the hot pan, the liquid will boil off and the potatoes will taste dry.

Notes

Tip: only fill the hot pan about half full with small round potatoes. Too many potatoes in the pan will cause them to be not browned enough. Also avoid over cooking before frying. 5 minutes in microwave is sufficient for 2 servings of potatoes. If the potatoes are cooked too much they will taste dry.
