Makes about six servings (about ½ cup each serving)
4 cups boiled potatoes cut in quarters
¼ cup canola oil for frying
2 tbs chopped parsley
¼ cup chopped green onions
3 tbs olive oil
2 tbs lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste (about ¼ tsp each – all according to taste)
Boil the potatoes in the microwave or over the stove. For this dish I used about six potatoes, mixed sizes. I peel them, wash them, quarter them, and boil them in the microwave for about 20-30 minutes. The potatoes should be firm to the touch, not mushy but also not undercooked.
When the potatoes are boiled, drain them in a strainer and let them cool, while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
In a frying pan, add the ¼-cup canola oil. When the oil is hot, add the potatoes, piece by piece, but do not overcrowd the pan. Let them fry until they are golden brown on all sides. Remove from the frying pan and place them in a bowl lined with a paper towel to absorb the extra oil. When all the potatoes are fried, let them cool in the bowl.
When the potatoes are cool to the touch, transfer them in another bowl without the paper towel. Add the chopped parsley, green onions, the 3 tbs olive oil, and the lemon juice, along with salt and pepper. Toss and cover, or serve immediately.
