Crispy Skillet Potatoes with Spinach

Allergen Warning

• This recipe contains butter, which is a dairy product. Individuals with milk allergies or lactose intolerance should exercise caution or use dairy-free alternatives.

Cooking Temperature

• Heat sunflower oil until it shimmers before adding potatoes to ensure proper searing and prevent sticking. Maintain medium-high heat throughout the initial cooking phase.

• Cook potatoes to a minimum internal temperature of 195°F (90°C) to ensure they are fully cooked through, especially when reducing heat to prevent burning.

Handling

• Ensure potatoes are cut uniformly (2cm cubes) to promote even cooking and prevent undercooked centers, which can occur at larger sizes.

Cross Contamination

• If serving to individuals with severe dairy allergies, use dedicated cooking equipment that has not been in contact with dairy products.

Storage

• Refrigerate leftover potatoes with spinach within 2 hours of cooking. Consume within 3-4 days. Reheat to 165°F (74°C) before serving.

Shelf Life

• Raw spinach should be used within 5-7 days when refrigerated. Cooked spinach dishes are best consumed within 2-3 days for optimal quality and safety.

Equipment Safety

• When adding butter to the hot pan, stand back slightly as it may splatter. Add butter to the center of the pan away from oil to control the cooking temperature.
