Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

You’ll need about four medium-sized russet potatoes for this recipe. Russets provide the ideal texture—crispy on the outside while remaining fluffy inside after cooking. Make sure to wash them thoroughly before peeling.

Bell Peppers

Use one red bell pepper and one green bell pepper for flavor and color contrast. These add sweetness and crunch to the dish. Dice them into small pieces to ensure they cook evenly alongside the potatoes.

Onion

A medium yellow onion is perfect for this recipe. It adds a savory depth that complements the other ingredients well. Chop it finely so that it blends seamlessly into your home fries.

Olive Oil

Two tablespoons of olive oil are needed to help achieve that crispy texture you desire. Olive oil not only aids in browning but also adds a rich flavor to your dish.

Seasonings

You will require salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder—each about a teaspoon—to season the mixture perfectly. These spices enhance the natural flavors of the veggies and potatoes without overpowering them.
