How to cook sautéed potatoes

1. First, wash the potatoes well under running water. If you use an organic product you can keep the peel, otherwise I recommend you remove it with a potato peeler.
2. Now divide your potatoes in half lengthwise, then into four and finally into wedges .
3. Now take a pan, pour in a drizzle of oil, the garlic removed from the shirt and the chopped aromatic herbs. Brown the garlic for a few minutes then toss the potatoes, salt and pepper and let them brown for a few minutes.
4. At this point, add 1 glass of water and close the pan with the lid. Cook over medium-low heat for about 15-20 minutes .
5. After this time, remove the lid and, if the potatoes are soft, raise the heat and toast the potatoes well for at least another 4-5 minutes. If, on the other hand, they are still hard, add a little water and close the lid again for a few minutes.

If you like, you can prepare a richer and tastier version simply by adding onion. To make this recipe a second dish, I recommend accompanying them with a simple fried egg or sausage.
