Ingredients:  
3 to 4 tablespoons. oil, lard or bacon grease
2 large potatoes cut into pieces about 1 inch
long and 1/2 inch thick (about 4 cups)
1 large onion finely chopped (about 2 cups)

Directions:
Directions:
Heat grease in large cast iron skillet until hot.
Add potatoes to hot skillet. Cook until potatoes
are lightly browned on all sides stirring often.
When the potatoes are browned but still a little
crisp in the middle, stir in onions. Add a little
more oil if necessary to keep the potatoes from
sticking too much. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of
water and cover the pan. The water will instantly
turn to steam and soften the potatoes. Let cook
covered 2 to 3 minutes.

My Notes:
Fried Potatoes Leave out the onions and you have
basic, everyday fried potatoes.
