Speckkartoffel Potatoes With Bacon Recipes

Steps:

• Put the potatoes and salt in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat and simmer for 1 minute, then drain. Pat dry.
• Meanwhile, put the bacon in a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or a saute pan over medium-low heat, and cook until nearly all the fat has rendered and the bacon is crispy, aromatic, and browned, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel lined plate.
• Add the 1 to 2 tablespoons of butter or oil to the remaining bacon fat. Increase the heat to medium. Add the potatoes, positioning them in the pan so the cut sides get nice and brown. Cook turning only as needed until the potatoes are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Stir in the parsley, garlic, and bacon and stir until fragrant and lightly browned. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Serve.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan, cover with cold water and add a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, simmer for 1 minute and then drain well and set aside. The potatoes will be cooked about halfway through.
• Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer the bacon with a slotted spoon to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Add the olive oil to the skillet with the bacon drippings and increase the heat to medium. Add the potatoes cut-side down. Cook, turning occasionally until the potatoes are golden brown and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the crispy bacon. Season generously with salt and pepper and sprinkle with the chives.

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:

• In a skillet, melt the lard and briefly fry the onions and bacon.
• Add the sliced potatoes and saute until golden brown.
• Add salt and pepper to taste, and gently stir in the sour cream.
• Serves 4.
