How do you do pots and onions?

[hayleylou]

How do you do those small Potatoes with onion... do you part boil Potatoes or just fry or roast them?? Just fancied doing them but not sure how??

no idea what you're talking about .. do they taste like roast potatoes or like chips??

mixture of both, not as crunchy as roast potatoes i suppose more like chips!!

I just cannot visualise this obviously commonplace dish?

What shape are the onions and potatoes cut in to? Could you mean saute?

I am soooo tempted to write- pots in the dishwasher, DH chops onions - but I wont.

cut 'em up small
throw them in a roasting tray
drizzle oil over them and mix till coated (add garlic I suppose if you like)
then roast on high for 20 mins or so, turning halfway

would that do?
still don't know what you're talking about though so complete guesswork

saute sounds a bit more like it..... must be a german dish as everyone seems to think I am mad asking the question

hayleylou, i think i had what your talking about whe i was skiing in austria, does it sometimes have crispy bacon bits in as well?
its sauteed pots with bits of cripsy onion and bacon
so, chop up pots into quarters, par boil for 7 mins
chop up onions and bacon into little bits and fry until cripsy, then add pots and fry on high heat until crispy too!
think they used to grate cheese over, nice low fat meal, yum!!!!

Glad someone knows what I am talking about was getting a bit paranoid I was going mad. I am off to make them now yum yum

that sounds divine
Mmmmmmmmm...fried onions, potatoes and bacon, now you're talking
glad you got to the bottom of it

Try with a bit of leftover roast meat too - pytt i panna

bizarrely, thanks to this thread I sauted the left-over sunday roast (with small potatoes and carrots .. didn't have any onions) for dinner last night and it was truly YUM .. so thanks
