Pan Fried Potatoes Bratkartoffeln Recipes

Steps:

• Cut potatoes into evenly thick slices (about 3/16 in ).
• Use a large pan that will hold potatoes in a single layer or use two pans.
• Heat oil over medium high heat.
• If using bacon and onion fry together until onion is translucent.
• Add potatoes, stir once to mix and then be patient!
• DON'T stir until potatoes are nicely golden brown on the bottom, 3-5 minutes, only check for color occasionally.
• Sprinkle with half the salt. Use less salt when using bacon.
• Turn and fry the same way on the other side until nicely gold-brown.
• You might need to add a little more oil to the pan if all the oil is soaked up by the potatoes.
• Taste with salt and pepper.
• Serve sprinkled with parsley.

Steps:

• Sauté the bacon in a large pan over medium heat until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon from the pan with a slotted spoon, leaving as much grease as possible in the pan, and set aside to drain on paper towels.
• In the pan with the bacon fat, sauté the onions until translucent, for about 5 minutes.
• Remove the onions from the pan, leaving behind any remaining bacon fat.
• Add the vegetable oil to the bacon fat and heat over medium-high heat.
• Add the potatoes to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and sauté the potatoes until they begin to get a golden crust, 15-20 minutes.
• Return the bacon and cooked onions to the pan and toss gently with the potatoes. Sauté for another 5 minutes, until everything is heated through and golden brown.
• Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with parsley.
• Enjoy!
