Step 1
How to fry country-style potatoes in a frying pan? The recipe is simple and quick. First, prepare the necessary ingredients: you only need potatoes, oil and spices.

Step 2
Country-style potatoes are cooked with the skins on. Therefore, it is necessary to rinse the potatoes very thoroughly and rub them with a brush.

Step 3
Cut each potato lengthwise into 4 wedges. It is better to use special varieties of potatoes intended for frying. Inside, such potatoes have yellowish flesh and little starch. If you see that your vegetables contain a lot of starch, then it is better to rinse such potatoes with water to wash off the starch from the surface.

It took me about 20 minutes to fry.
