Very tasty. I would use less than half the oil the next time.
The instructions aren't clear enough about whether you cook with the seasoned oil or just use it to toss with the cooked potatoes afterward.
This was a good recipe, but after making it, I concluded that all that frying it totally unnecessary. Also, I used a fraction of the olive oil called for (probably about 3 Tbsp). If I make it again, I will just toss the potatoes in oil and roast them in the oven. Frying them on the stove requires a lot of attention that doesn’t add much, in my opinion.
