- Drain the potatoes and set them aside.
3. Sauté the Aromatics:
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil over medium heat.
- Add the finely chopped red onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until they become soft and translucent.

4. Cook the Potatoes:
- Add the pre-cooked potatoes to the skillet with the onion and garlic.

- Cook for a further 1-2 minutes to ensure all flavors are well combined.
6. Serve and Enjoy:
- Transfer the chili garlic potatoes to a serving dish.

Tips:

- For extra crispiness, soak the potato slices in cold water for 30 minutes before frying. This removes excess starch.

- Make sure to thinly slice the potatoes to ensure even cooking and a crispy texture.

- Adjust the amount of garlic and chili according to your spice tolerance.

- You can add bell peppers or other veggies for additional flavors and nutrition.

- Fry the garlic and onions first to release their aroma before adding the potatoes.

- Garnish with fresh herbs like coriander or parsley for an added burst of freshness.
