Ingredients

Four med red or regular potatoes

two med sweet potatoes

small onion (1/3 cup chopped)

4-5 cloves of garlic

2-3 tsp. dillweed

salt and pepper to taste

olive oil (enough to coat pan well but not drench the potatoes) or cooking oil of your choice

Directions

Peel (or don't) the red potatoes, peel (recommended) sweet potatoes. Cut into quarters, then into smaller chunks.

*Also, keep in mind that sweet potato cooks quicker than regular russets or reds, they may tend to get mushy. To prevent this from happening if you like, you may add the sweet potato about 5 to 7 minutes after the other ingredients start cooking. I like them mushy myself and I just throw them all in at once.

Chop garlic and onion (I like to use my food processor for speed)

Add potatoes, garlic, and onion to preheated, oiled skillet.

Toss around the vegetables to coat it in the oil.

Sprinkle half the dillweed, salt, and pepper on top and mix the spices in the potatoes.

Then add rest of spices and toss again.

Let the potatoes cook in the skillet with a lid, turning occasionally to prevent burning.

Cook with lid on for about 10-15 minutes then remove lid and allow potatoes to brown and cook until finished

Am I putting whole potatoes in the skillet or did you forget to mention the style of cut you want on the potato.
When I make this dish the potatoes are in 1/2" thick strips. It is a comfort food that is quite adaptable to your favorite spice.

Haha, I'll try to change that... sorry about the detail, my baby often distracts me.

Sure looks good to me! I usually slice my potatoes in 3/4 - 1" slices or chunks. I have never mixed sweet potatoes with regular spuds and honestly never even gave it a second thought. Thanks so much for the idea ;-)
