Wow, I've always had issues making pan friend potatoes because I don't have the patience to wait that long, and cooking them in the microwave first is much better then slicing canned potatoes lol. I sliced 2 potatoes into slivers, microwaved for 5 minutes in a bowl covered with plastic wrap. Fried them up with just oil, butter, salt and pepper and threw some cheddar cheese on top to go along with the french toast I made for dinner. I will be using this technique often!

    Delicious, quick and easy to make potato recipe. I used garlic powder, basil, and fresh minced parsley from my garden, and freshly ground black pepper for the seasonings this time. Potatoes are my favorite food and now I have another yummy recipe to add to my growing collection of zaar favorites. A good side dish for brunch, lunch, or dinner.

    This gets 5 stars because this is an old favorite of mine that has been made faster and easier thanks to you, Anme. I added dried chopped onion and paprika for preference. I never thought to pre-cook the potatoes in the microwave. Generally fried potatoes take sometimes 45 minutes in the pan. Great job Anme, thanks for posting.

    This is how I do potatoes all the time!!!! I like topping with a little grated cheddar cheese right at the end when I serve this for breakfast!
