Ingredient Substitution Guide

Preparation

Step 1
Rinse potatoes, put in a saucepan. Add cold water to cover and salt.
Step 2
Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain thoroughly. Cool.
Step 3
Cut potatoes into ¼-inch-thick slices. There should be about 4½ to 5 cups.
Step 4
Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet and when it is quite hot add potatoes, salt and pepper. Let potatoes cook until they start to brown on one side, about 4 minutes. Shake the skillet to toss and redistribute the potatoes. Add butter. Shake and toss potatoes as they continue to cook.
Step 5
When potatoes have cooked for 4 minutes longer, sprinkle with shallots, garlic and parsley. Toss and stir gently to blend. Serve immediately.
