Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds (about 3 potatoes) round, white thin skinned potatoes
- 1 large sweet onion
- Coarse salt
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1 turn of the pan
- 2 tablespoons butter
Directions
Heat a 10-inch heavy skillet over medium high heat.
Slice potatoes and onions very thin. Salt potatoes and onions. Add oil and butter to the pan. When the butter foams, add potatoes and onions to the skillet.
Place a dinner plate on top of potatoes and weight it with any heavy object: a sack of flour, heavy canned goods, etc. Let the potatoes and onions crust, 2 to 3 minutes, then turn, replace weights, and let them crust again. Keep turning the potatoes and onions over for about 20 minutes, until they are evenly golden and crusted.

Awesome! I've done it both with Yukon and Red New potatoes. Great both ways. I added a little fresh Thyme as well. I added some chopped up cooked bacon and a handful of parmesan cheese at the end. Came out Killer!! Kids loved it... Making it this weekend... Thanks Rachael for a great recipe and it gets you hungry as soon as those onions start cooking... YUM!

These were SO easy, fast, and delicious! I used Yukon gold potatoes and added minced garlic. The house still smells yummy from them. My husband said this recipe is a keeper.
Do check that you have a plate that will fit in your skillet.
