GERMAN BRATKARTOFFELN RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Sauté the bacon in a large pan over medium heat until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon from the pan with a slotted spoon, leaving as much grease as possible in the pan, and set aside to drain on paper towels.
• In the pan with the bacon fat, sauté the onions until translucent, for about 5 minutes.
• Remove the onions from the pan, leaving behind any remaining bacon fat.
• Add the vegetable oil to the bacon fat and heat over medium-high heat.
• Add the potatoes to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and sauté the potatoes until they begin to get a golden crust, 15-20 minutes.
• Return the bacon and cooked onions to the pan and toss gently with the potatoes. Sauté for another 5 minutes, until everything is heated through and golden brown.
• Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with parsley.
• Enjoy!
