To make fried potatoes delicious, you need to follow a few rules.

First, you need to cut the vegetable in a certain way. Thin slices are ideal when frying in a pan.

But it is worth cutting potatoes into strips and cubes if you plan to cook the dish in a deep fryer.

Secondly, it is advisable to place pieces of raw nightshade on a paper napkin to remove excess moisture.

Thirdly, the slices should not be stirred too early and too often. Otherwise, a tasty and beautiful crust will not appear.

All the above tricks are known to many gourmets. There is one more life hack that is worth paying attention to.

So, one ingredient should be added to the vegetable oil in which the potatoes are fried.

What supplement are we talking about?

Before you pour the potato pieces into the frying pan, you need to put a piece of butter into the heating vegetable oil.

The result will be a mixture that will guarantee the preparation of an incredibly tasty side dish.

But if possible, you should use rendered lard instead of butter.

Lard is an ideal additive that gives a dish a luxurious aroma.
