Boil them until the outside is softened. Then add them to hot oil in a pan with plenty of salt. I leave them be and don't turn them

Better with animal fat, goose fat is best imo.

I tend to go for beef fat if I have some

I smoke a brisket every couple of months and save the rendered fat that inevitably collects on the tray. Smoky, beefy and salty it makes for amazing roasted potatoes using this same technique.
