Instructions

Prep the potatoes and sweet potatoes by placing them in a bowl of cold water for 5 minutes, then drain and pat dry. This helps remove excess starch and improves browning.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the potatoes and sweet potatoes to the skillet in an even layer.
Sprinkle with some salt and pepper to season. Cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown and soften.
Fold in the onion and bell pepper, cooking for another 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and lightly crisp.
Add the garlic and seasonings, cooking for 1-2 minutes more.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve hot.
