Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs little potatoes, halved
- 1 cup + 2 tsp white vinegar
- 1 tbsp salt
- 2 tbsp butter
- Freshly cracked black pepper
- Flaked sea salt
- Chopped chives (optional)
Instructions
- Boil the Potatoes: In a large pot, combine halved little potatoes with 1 cup of white vinegar and 1 tablespoon of salt. Fill with water to cover the potatoes by about 2 inches and bring to a boil.
- Simmer Until Tender: Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer for 20 minutes until fork-tender.
- Drain and Dry: Transfer cooked potatoes to a strainer to drain excess water; let rest for a couple of minutes to allow steam to escape.
- Frying Time: In a cast iron skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add drained potatoes, season with black pepper and additional salt, then fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides.
- Final Touches: Transfer fried potatoes to a serving dish, drizzle with remaining vinegar, sprinkle with flaked sea salt, and garnish with chives if desired.
