Dutch Fried Potatoes (Gebakken Aardappelen)

Method

1. I

   Cut potatoes into thick slices. Heat the butter in a pan and fry the diced bacon until fairly crispy. Remove bacon from the pan and set aside.

2. II

   Place potato slices in the bacon grease, making sure the slices each touch the bottom of the skillet. (You will probably have to do this in batches.)

3. III

   Turn to low and slowly fry the potato slices until golden, then flip to the other side.

4. IV

   When potatoes are golden on both sides, remove to a plate and keep warm, then quickly saute the onions in the grease.

5. V

   Add back the bacon and potato slices and carefully toss them together. Season with salt to taste. Serve hot.
