🥔 German Fried Potatoes with Onion and Herbs (Bratkartoffeln)
Ingredients:
* 700g potatoes.
* 1 large onion, sliced.
* 100g diced bacon (optional).
* 2–3 tablespoons oil or butter.
* 2 cloves of garlic (optional).
* Salt and black pepper to taste.
* ½ teaspoon paprika.
* Fresh chopped parsley.
Preparation:
* Boil the potatoes (with skins on) for 15–20 minutes until partially tender; let them cool, then peel and slice them.
* Heat the oil or butter in a large skillet, then arrange the potatoes in a single layer.
* Let them brown over medium heat—without constant stirring—until golden and crispy on both sides.
* Add the onion and bacon (if using), and sauté until the onion is browned and tender.
* Add the garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika, and stir for 1–2 minutes.
* Stir in the chopped parsley at the end and serve hot.
✨ The secret to crispiness: Dry the potatoes thoroughly after boiling, and do not overcrowd the pan so they brown properly instead of steaming.
😋 The result: Golden potatoes that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with delicious onion and herb flavors!
