UNCLE BILL'S FRIED POTATOES AND ONIONS



Uncle Bill's Fried Potatoes and Onions image

I remember my Grandmother making this marvelous dish over 65 years ago. We were the only vegetarians in our family and therefore Grandma cooked just to please me. A very easy, simple but tasty side dish. Young potatoes are especially good.

Categories     Potato

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large russet potatoes or 4 large yukon gold potatoes
1 large onion, sliced thin
4 tablespoons butter (or more if required)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Peel and slice potatoes about 1/8 inch thick or thinner.
  • Slice onion thinly.
  • In a large frying pan on medium-high heat, melt butter, add olive oil.
  • Add sliced potatoes and onions, cover and fry for 10 minutes. Using a spatula, turn the potatoes and onions over so they do not break apart. If potatoes appear too dry, add some additional butter.
  • Sprinkle with granulated garlic powder, dried dill weed, salt and pepper and continue to fry with cover removed for another 5 minutes or until potatoes begin to turn slightly brown; turning occasionally.
  • Serve hot with your meal.
  • Note: You may use 2 or 3 large garlic cloves (chopped small), instead of granulated garlic powder. Add to the potatoes after the first 10 minutes of cooking time.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 large potatoes (russet, yellow gold, white or red potatoes)
your choice spices (granulated garlic powder, seasoning salt, cayenne pepper, dried dill weed, granulated garlic powder)
vegetable oil, for microwave bacon tray

Steps:

  • If potatoes are old, peel and slice thin, less than 1/16" in thickness (paper thin), slicing across the potato.
  • If the potatoes are new or good skins, DO NOT PEEL, just scrub well, then slice them less than 1/16" in thickness (paper thin), slicing across the potato.
  • Place potato slices in a bowl, sprinkle with some salt (if desired) cover with cold water and let sit for 10 minutes.
  • Remove potato slices in batches onto paper toweling and pat dry.
  • If you have a microwave bacon tray, rub the tray with a vegetable oil, then place the sliced potatoes flat on the tray in a single layer.
  • Sprinkle with your choice of herbs or spices or just leave them plain.
  • Cover with a microwaveable, round heavy plastic cover.
  • Microwave on HIGH (full power) for 5 to 5 1/2 minutes or until they curl slightly and are a very light brown in color.
  • Cooking time could vary slightly, depending on the wattage of your microwave and the thickness of the slices. The thinner the slices, the quicker they cook and the tastier they are.
  • You do not have to turn the sliced potatoes over.
  • If you do not have a bacon tray, use a microwave safe casserole dish.
  • Rub the inside of the dish with some olive oil for the first batch of potato chips.
  • I do not know why, but I find that if you do not rub oil the first time, some chips will tend to stick to the dish.
  • After the first batch is done, you do not have to rub the dish again.
  • Continue to microwave the remainder of sliced potatoes as noted above.
  • If using a bacon tray, after the first batch is cooked, you can reduce the microwaving time to 4 1/2 minutes and even less as you continue to microwave each batch.
  • NOTE: You can also use PARCHMENT PAPER to microwave the potato slices. Lightly spray or rub the parchment paper with some vegetable oil or a Pam spray. Place your potato slices on the parchment paper, then sprinkle them with whatever you like and then place another piece of parchment paper on top. This will help microwave the potatoes more evenly and they should turn out nice and crisp. Microwaving time should be between 5 and 6 minutes.
  • ADDITIONAL IDEAS, suggested by Deb K:.
  • Granulated garlic powder with parsley.
  • Cracked black pepper, grated parmesan and sea salt sprinkled after removing from microwave.
  • Another, after removing chips from microwave, sprinkle with grated cheddar cheese, zap for a few seconds to melt the cheese, then add a dab of sour cream.
  • A great dip is Robert Rothschild Farm Dips:.
  • Emerald Isle Onion Dill and Horseradish Dip.
