Fried potatoes are easy to prepare only at first glance: difficulties often arise along the way for the cook.
Therefore, instead of delicious golden-colored pieces with a crispy crust, you can get a strange mass that you don’t even want to try.
Therefore, the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" on cooking issues, chef Yulia Arkhipova, advises not to forget about the main culinary mistakes.
What do they consist of?
Young potatoes
It is best to use this potato for boiling: it will be ideal as a side dish. But for frying, it is worth choosing older potatoes so that the dish turns out tasty and high-quality.
Lack of oil
Many are afraid to add enough oil, because it makes the dish more caloric and harmful. But it is worth initially understanding that fried potatoes are not related to healthy eating.
Therefore, it is better to make the dish more delicious by adding a sufficient amount of vegetable oil.
No additives
To make the potatoes more delicious, you can melt a piece of lard in a frying pan before frying. If you do not want to use meat products, then add butter.
This will help to achieve crust formation.
