Directions

  1. 1

    Freeze the bacon slices for a few hours to make them easier to cut during preparation.

  2. 2

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into medium, uniform cubes.

  3. 3

    Place the cut potatoes in a bowl filled with cold water to prevent them from browning.

  4. 4

    Heat 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Tilt the pan to distribute the oil evenly.

  5. 5

    Drain the potatoes and add them to the hot skillet. Season with salt, pepper, and spices to taste.

  6. 6

    Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring often, until the potatoes are golden and crispy.

  7. 7

    Add the minced garlic and crispy bacon bits. Pour in the maple syrup and mix well to coat the potatoes.

  8. 8

    Garnish with fresh parsley before serving hot.

💡 Chef's Tip

Freezing the bacon beforehand makes it easier to slice. Use cold water to soak your potatoes to prevent them from darkening. Stir regularly for even cooking and optimal browning. The maple syrup provides an authentic Canadian flavor.
