Notes
Cut the potatoes into similar-sized cubes so they fry evenly. Let the potatoes brown well before removing them from the skillet, as this helps keep their texture. Use the same skillet to fry the beef and take advantage of the flavor left from the potatoes. Mix the cream cheese spread with the garlic near the end to make the beef creamier. Cover the skillet only long enough to melt the cheese and serve while hot.
