How to Make Country Style Breakfast Potatoes

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 2 pounds of small red potatoes (halved or quartered if large), and fry, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown in places (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and fry for about 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  4. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper (about 1/2 teaspoon of each, or to taste).
  5. Toss to coat the potatoes evenly with the oil, onions, and seasonings.
  6. Add 3 tablespoons of water, cover the skillet immediately, reduce heat to medium-low.
  7. Simmer until the potatoes are tender and most of the water has evaporated (about 3-5 minutes).
  8. Serve immediately. Makes 2 servings.
