**Crispy Pan-Scored Potatoes: The Perfect Side Dish with a Golden Crunch**
Looking for a side dish that’s easy, satisfying, and absolutely packed with flavor? **Pan-scored potatoes** are here to impress! With their golden, crispy edges and tender, buttery centers, these potatoes are a beautiful twist on classic pan-fried or roasted potatoes. Scoring the surface of the potatoes not only helps them cook evenly, but it also creates more crispy ridges that soak up flavor and seasoning like a dream. Whether you’re serving them with a hearty main dish or just snacking on them with a dip, pan-scored potatoes might just steal the show.
### **What Are Pan-Scored Potatoes?**
Pan-scored potatoes are simply potatoes that have been lightly sliced (or “scored”) on one or both sides before being seared in a hot pan. The scoring technique enhances the texture, allowing the potatoes to crisp up beautifully while cooking more evenly. It’s a simple trick with big impact—both in taste and in presentation.
### **Ingredients:**
– 4 medium Yukon gold or baby potatoes (russet or red potatoes also work)
– 2–3 tablespoons olive oil or butter (or a mix of both)
– Salt, to taste
– Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
– 2 cloves garlic, minced (optional for added flavor)
– Fresh herbs like rosemary, thyme, or parsley (optional garnish)
– Paprika or chili flakes (optional for a bit of heat)
**Optional Add-ins:**
– Grated Parmesan cheese
– Lemon zest for brightness
– Dips like sour cream, aioli, or spicy mayo for serving
