Twice Fried Potatoes

Total Time: 40 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 1
• 1 large potato, peeled and cubed
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 4 slices bacon, coarsely chopped and cooked
• 4 tablespoons butter, divided
• 1 tablespoon sour cream
• 1/4 cup shredded cheese

Recipe

• 1 after peeling and cutting the potato, place in a small or medium pot of cold water then bring the water to a boil. i like to use minced onion (the dried onions found in the spice aisle) in the water also. boil until the potatoes are just tender enough to be pierced with a fork.
• 2 while the potatoes are boiling, place 1 tbsp butter in a pan coating the bottom of the pan. add the onions and saute until just translucent and tender.
• 3 chop and cook (or cook then chop) the bacon. i would recommend not mixing the bacon and onion. when the bacon is done cooking, place on a paper towel to drain and set aside for now.
• 4 when the potatoes are tender, drain them, add remaining 3 tbsp butter and potatoes to the pan with the onions. cook until potatoes are slightly crunchy on the outside, but do not over-cook.
• 5 when potatoes have about 2 minutes remaining to cook, spread them out across the bottom of the pan and cover with cheese. put lid on pan and allow cheese to melt.
• 6 transfer potatoes to plate, topping with bacon and sour cream.
