Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized Russet potatoes
- 2 large Yellow onion
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Place the slices in a bowl of cold water to prevent browning and remove excess starch.
Peel and thinly slice the onions into half-moon shapes. Set aside.
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion slices and sauté for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and golden. Remove the onions from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the potato slices in a single layer, if possible. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
Season the potatoes with half the salt and pepper. Cook without stirring for 5–7 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crisp.
Flip the potato slices carefully using a spatula, season with the remaining salt and pepper, and cook for an additional 5–7 minutes until golden and tender.
Return the sautéed onions to the skillet with the potatoes. Gently combine the onions and potatoes using a spatula so they are evenly distributed.
Cook everything together for 2–3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the potatoes and onions before serving. Serve hot and enjoy!
