Avoid
- Overcrowding the skillet—this causes steaming, not frying.
- Using wet potatoes—moisture reduces browning.
- Cooking on too low heat—results in mushy texture.
- Adding onions too early—they may burn before the potatoes are done.

Q: Can I use sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes?
Yes! Sweet potatoes will caramelize beautifully, though they may soften more quickly.
Q: How do I keep potatoes from sticking to the skillet?
