Method

Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Pat the potato slices dry with a clean towel. Do not rinse them, since wet slices will not brown.

  2. 2

    Melt the duck fat in a large, wide skillet over medium heat until it shimmers.

  3. 3

    Add the potatoes in a loose, even layer and season with the salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Cook for 5 min, turning gently with a spatula so the slices take on a little color.

  5. 5

    Cover the pan and cook on medium-low heat for 15 min, turning every 5 min, until the slices are tender.

  6. 6

    Uncover, raise the heat to medium-high and cook for 8-10 min, turning now and then, until golden and crisp at the edges.

  7. 7

    Stir in the garlic and cook for 1-2 min, just until fragrant, so it does not burn.

  8. 8

    Toss with the parsley, taste for salt and serve immediately.
