10. Serve the Wien potatoes hot as a delicious side dish.

Few tips for making potatoes extra crispy:

1. After boiling the potatoes, let them cool completely before cutting them into bite-sized pieces. This will help them maintain their shape and prevent them from becoming mushy when cooked.
2. Use a non-stick skillet or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet to prevent the potatoes from sticking to the pan.
3. Make sure the butter is hot before adding the potatoes to the skillet. This will help create a crispy crust on the outside of the potatoes.
4. Don’t overcrowd the skillet. Make sure there’s enough space between the potato pieces so they can cook evenly and get crispy.
5. Resist the urge to stir the potatoes too often. Let them cook undisturbed for a few minutes to develop a crispy crust, then use a spatula to flip them over and cook on the other side.
6. If you want to take the crispiness to the next level, you can toss the potatoes in a little bit of cornstarch or flour before adding them to the skillet. The starch will help create a crispy coating on the outside of the potatoes.

Enjoy your homemade Wien potatoes!
