Ingredients

  • 3–4 large potatoes
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • Oil for frying
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  2. Heat oil in a seasoned or non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Carefully add the potatoes and cook uncovered.
  3. Fry for 20–25 minutes until golden and crispy, gently flipping them without stirring too much so they stay intact.
