Fried Potatoes And Onion!!!!

Step 4: Start Cooking the Potatoes

• Spread the potato slices in a single layer in the skillet. Don’t overcrowd the pan—this helps them fry instead of steam.
• Cook without stirring for 5–6 minutes until the bottoms are golden and crisp.
• Flip the slices and cook the other side for another 5 minutes.

Step 5: Add the Onions

• Once the potatoes begin to soften and turn golden, add the sliced onions.
• Stir everything gently to coat the onions in oil and mix with the potatoes.
• Cook for another 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and the potatoes are tender inside but crispy outside.

Step 6: Season and Serve

• Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and optional spices like paprika for smokiness or garlic powder for depth.
• Toss gently and remove from heat.
• Serve hot as a side dish or enjoy it on its own.

Tips for Perfect Fried Potatoes and Onion

1. Don’t rush – Slow cooking on medium heat helps achieve crispness without burning.
2. Use the right pan – Cast iron or a heavy-bottomed skillet gives the best results.
3. Avoid too much stirring – Letting potatoes sit undisturbed creates a nice golden crust.
4. Experiment with flavors – Try adding fresh herbs, shredded cheese, or even a splash of vinegar for tang.

Serving Suggestions

• With fried eggs and toast for a complete breakfast.
• Alongside grilled chicken, steak, or sausages for a filling dinner.
• Topped with sour cream or cheese for a quick comfort snack.
• Mixed into a breakfast burrito with scrambled eggs.
