The potatoes are par-cooked to ensure they cook through quickly and evenly.

To prepare, simply open the package and add the diced potatoes to your cooking method of choice. They can be pan-fried in a skillet with a little oil or butter until golden brown and tender. They also bake well in the oven, either on their own or as part of a larger dish. For a quick breakfast, they can be added directly to a pan with eggs and other ingredients. The pre-seasoning means you often don't need to add extra salt or spices, though you can adjust to your taste.
