Butter Fried Potatoes & Onions
Why did I post such a simple recipe? Because somebody out there has always wanted to make Fried Potatoes but never learned how and was afraid to ask. That is why I try to keep most of my recipes easy, so anyone new or old to cooking can learn how. We love these Fried Potatoes with eggs and toast for any meal. These are also a great addition to any meal so give them a try!
Ingredients – Use the fat of your choice.
You can use butter, bacon grease, oil etc.
Peel and cut the potatoes into chunks.
Peel and slice the onion.
In a large non stick skillet over medium heat,
add the butter until it melts. Add the potatoes,
onions, salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat
until potatoes are cooked through and slightly brown.
Add paprika, mix well and serve!

Diane, you and I have the same taste in foods. I love this recipe for potatoes. I also sprinkle some garlic powder on them. And when in a hurry or in the RV, I buy can potatoes, to skip the peeling process.
Have you ever added bacon? I like to cook bacon, remove from fat and cook the potatoes in the bacon fat. Then crumble and add the bacon to the potatoes……oh talk about flavor!
I have not tried bacon, but plan to next time. Thanks
You’re welcome Joanna!
Great point, being a fulltime RV’er, the local grocery store isn’t always handy. We keep canned potatoes on hand for this exact purpose.
Yummy!
Thanks!

Butter adds so much flavor. You’re welcome!
When I was a young adult and first out on my own, this was one of my go-to dishes. I could eat potatoes every day and never get tired of them! This recipe has “comfort food” written all over it! The photo only makes my mouth water.
It definitely is a good recipe when you are first starting out, thank you for sharing your story!
Okay, DEFINITELY hanging on to this one.
You will love it!!! Get use to making it though, they will ask for more. Lol
I shared your post with my husband. He was all, “Oh yea, my mom used to make this all the time. It was great!” And I’m like, “When were you going to share this with me?!” 😛
