A great way to pep up the flavour of regular potatoes. Serve with grilled meats, fish or curry. They make a great addition to any BBQ too!

Steps
Place your potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil.
Boil for 10 minutes until the potatoes are soft and tender but not mushy. You can test this by pushing a table knife into a potato; it should slide in easily without the potato disintegrating.
Drain the potatoes using a colander. Leave them in the colander for a minute to release steam, so that the excess moisture evaporates.
Take a large frying pan (skillet). Heat up the oil and butter over a medium-high heat, until the butter starts to foam.
Add the potatoes and fry for about 6-8 minutes, turning every couple of minutes until you get a light brown crust on them.
Add in the onion and garlic and cook for a further 2-3 minutes, stirring often, until the onion starts to soften.
Add the salt and pepper. Give everything a stir and cook for one more minute, stirring a few times to prevent it sticking.
Turn off the heat and stir in the coriander (cilantro). Drizzle over the lemon juice, then serve.
