Step 1:
How to fry potatoes with cheese in a frying pan? This recipe is as simple as it is delicious. First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. Potatoes for the dish need a small size and diameter, the tubers are smooth, possibly oblong.
Step 2:
Wash the potatoes thoroughly, rub thoroughly with a brush. Without peeling, cut the potatoes into slices about 1-1.5 cm thick. I have young potatoes, but you can take any one. If desired, you can peel the potatoes and cut them into strips or quarters.
Step 3:
Grate the cheese on a coarse grater. You can use any cheese you like best. Mozzarella, Gouda or ordinary Russian will do. The main thing is that it melts and tastes good. After all, the taste of the finished dish largely depends on the cheese. Hard cheese can generally be replaced with melted cheese.
Step 4:
Finely chop the garlic with a knife.
Step 5:
In a frying pan with a thick bottom, heat the vegetable and butter over low heat. Lay out the potatoes. Butter will give the dish a delicate taste, but it burns when heated. Therefore, vegetable oil is added, the gorenje of which is higher than that of butter. Then the butter will not burn, and the dish will fry and get the desired creamy flavor.
Step 6:
Fry, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or longer until golden brown. At the end, sprinkle the potatoes with chopped garlic, salt, pepper to taste and mix. Fry everything together for 1-2 minutes.
Step 7:
Sprinkle the potatoes with grated cheese. If desired, in addition to cheese at this stage, you can add finely chopped bacon or ham to the potatoes.
Step 8:
Cover the pan with a lid and fry for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese melts.
Step 9:
Ready fried potatoes with cheese, if desired, sprinkle with chopped bell pepper, green onions and herbs and immediately serve to the table until the cheese is frozen and stretches elastically. Bon appetit!

Since the degree of salinity, sweetness, bitterness, sharpness, acid, burning is individual for everyone, always add spices, spices and seasonings, focusing on your taste! If you put some of the seasonings for the first time, then keep in mind that there are spices that it is especially important not to shift (for example, chili pepper).

Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoking point. There are a lot of unfiltered organic particles in them, which quickly begin to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. If you are going to cook food in the oven, on a frying pan or grill, make sure that you use oil with a high smoking point. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.
