Papitas - A Classic New Mexican Side Dish

Peel potatoes and dice into ¼-inch cubes.

Add canola oil to a medium sauté pan and heat on medium to high heat.

Add diced potatoes, onion powder, salt and pepper.

Stir so that the oil coats all of the potatoes and cook for about 1 minute.

Turn the heat to low, cover with a lid and cook for about two minutes.

Remove the lid and stir potatoes, then replace the lid and cook for another 2 minutes, or until potatoes are crisp and soft.
