Everyone wants to have the talent to cook perfect fried potatoes: such a skill will be appreciated by everyone.
However, a simple dish does not always yield to our efforts.
Sometimes potatoes fall apart, are not cooked well, or are tasteless.
Therefore, it is worth eliminating the main mistakes associated with the preparation of this dish, says Yulia Arkhipova, an expert on culinary issues at the online publication BelNovosti.
What shortcomings should you be aware of?
Salt
You should be extremely careful with this component. If you add salt too early, the potatoes will fall apart and you will end up with an unappetizing mass.
If you add it too late, the potatoes will come out bland.
Therefore, salt the potatoes about five minutes before they are ready.
Frying only in vegetable oil
Yes, this product is ideal for thermal processing of potatoes, but it does not give any taste or aroma. Therefore, in the process of heating the vegetable oil, it is worth melting a little lard.
You can also add a piece of butter.
Lack of spices
Ignoring spices will definitely not benefit the dish, so use spices correctly. Marjoram and rosemary go well with potatoes.
You can also add a small pinch of nutmeg.
