Fried potatoes with lard and onions in a frying pan

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to fry potatoes with lard and onions in a frying pan? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. Lard can be taken with a small amount of meat or without any meat streaks at all.

2. STEP 2

   

   Peel the potatoes, rinse them to remove dirt and cut into strips. In general, you can cut it into any shape, but I really like it into strips - it tastes better! Rinse the cut potatoes with water to remove excess starch. Thanks to this, the potatoes will fall apart less when frying. Then drain all the water.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the lard into slices. Heat the pan until hot and add just a little vegetable oil. Add lard and fry it for 3-5 minutes over low heat on both sides. When frying, fat will appear from the lard itself. So you won't have to add any more oil.

4. STEP 4

   

   Peel the onions, rinse and finely chop.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add the chopped onion to the frying pan with the lard and fry everything together for a couple of minutes until a characteristic aroma appears. Fry lard and onions to your taste. Lard can be fried even more.

6. STEP 6

   

   Then place the washed potatoes in the frying pan, mix them with lard and fry until tender, stirring occasionally. Frying usually takes 15-20 minutes. If you want a crispy version, do not cover with a lid.

7. STEP 7

   

   At the end of cooking, add a little salt to the potatoes. You can add some dried aromatic herbs. Sprinkle with green onions before serving. Bon appetit!

I once salted lard with garlic, and today I decided to use it to cook fried potatoes with lard and onions in a frying pan. I removed the garlic from the lard and cut it into small strips. I poured a little vegetable oil into the frying pan and put in the lard. Fry it for a few minutes until golden brown. I immediately smelled fragrant garlic. I cut the onion into small cubes, put it in a frying pan, fry it a little, and when it became transparent, I added the potatoes cut into cubes. Cooked the potatoes until soft, covering the frying pan with a lid. It turned out delicious! The potatoes turned out soft and flavorful. There were also pieces of lard - very appetizing! My husband really liked the potatoes! Mom used to cook this, and it always turned out tastier than just using vegetable oil. Thank you very much for the recipe!
