add a teaspoon of salt into boiling water and then add the potatoes cubes.
allow potatoes to boil at high heat for several minutes. check them with a fork: press potato slowly with fork so it remains whole and doesn’t smash . doesn’t have to be completely boiled, because you have to fry them together with the smoked kaiser. drain potatoes in a strainer and leave them there until the you fry the kaiser. preheat a little oil. add kaiser and smashed garlic and let them fry. stir constantly.
when almost all the kaiser fat has melted, but still not very brown, add the boiled and well drained potatoes.
