Scale
- 2 pounds Potatoes (Russets or Yukon Gold)

- 3 tablespoons Olive Oil (Extra-virgin recommended)

- Sauté garlic: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
- Mix in potatoes: Gently add the boiled potatoes to the skillet. Sprinkle with red chili flakes, cumin, and salt, and stir well to coat them evenly.
- Crisp the potatoes: Cook the seasoned potatoes for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.
