History & Formation
Potatoes have been a staple in kitchens worldwide for centuries, but the concept of “bites” or small, crispy cubes is a modern twist inspired by finger foods and tapas culture. This method—parboiling followed by pan-frying—ensures that the inside stays fluffy while the outside achieves that irresistible crunch. The combination of onion and garlic adds depth, making these bites more than just a side dish—they become a snack that people fall in love with.
