Pan-Crisped Potatoes

1. 1

   Bring the potatoes to a boil in salted water to cover, then lower the heat to simmer until nearly tender, 10 to 15 minutes.

2. 2

   Drain well.

3. 3

   Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a 12-inch nonstick skillet for 3 or 4 minutes.

4. 4

   You can use more oil for crisper potatoes or less oil to cut the fat.

5. 5

   (You can also use butter or a combination if you prefer.)

6. 6

   Add the potatoes along with a healthy sprinkling of salt and pepper and cook, tossing and stirring from time to time (not constantly), until they are nicely browned all over, 10 to 20 minutes.

7. 7

   Add the garlic and continue to cook for 5 minutes more, stirring frequently.

8. 8

   Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, then serve.
