FRIED POTATOES AND ONIONS

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 because it burns more  rapidly than vegetable oil.

•You can eat this recipe with a ketchup, but they’re also delicious with a garlic aioli or honey mustard sauce!
