Ingredients
¼ cup vegetable oil
3 medium Russet potatoes, peeled
1 large yellow onion, sliced thinly
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional add-in:
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon (3 g) chives, chopped
Instructions
Step 1:Over medium-high heat, heat the oil in a sauté pan or cast-iron skillet. Then add the potatoes and onions to the heated oil with caution. Also add salt and pepper to taste. Garlic powder and red pepper flakes should follow.
Step 2:Allow to cook, turning frequently, for 10-15 minutes, or until potatoes and onions are nicely browned and soft. Cover skillet if desired to aid in cooking and generate a creamier texture.
Step 3:Drain excess oil on a platter lined with paper towels for a few minutes, then top with chives and serve!
Tips:
•If you want to kick it up a notch, try cooking it in butter or bacon grease instead of oil and tossing in some chopped dill. Just remember to use caution when using butter on high heat
