I think potatoes should be in every proper breakfast. It just makes sense to have a seasoned potato on the side of your eggs and bacon that's crisp on the outside and warm on the inside. I personally prefer home fries to hash browns but its mostly a texture difference and they are easier too!


In the pan I have assorted paprika, ground pepper, salt, potatoes (of course), minced garlic, and our good old friend butter. For most of these you can wing pretty easily and adjust to your pallet but for you guys who wanna be copy-cats I put in a teaspoon and a half of paprika, 2 tablespoons of butter, 2 very very small russet potatoes, teaspoon of salt, half a teaspoon of pepper, and about a tablespoon of minced garlic. 

You should start by mixing them all together on medium heat and cover them with a lid for 5 minutes, keep checking on them about every 3 minutes and stir them around also after those first 5 since it's really easy to burn these! If you like them crisp however, I suggest adding a bit more butter and letting them burn very slightly and they'll come out looking like mine. 


As good as they look and taste, that butter is some heavy stuff so I would save these for special occasions like Thanksgiving or Christmas but they are the perfect way to apologize to your boss at work for being late or persuading your mother into letting you go to a party.
