Instructions
- In a 12 inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until it reaches desired crispness. Use a heat-safe slotted spoon or Asian spider to remove the bacon but keep the rendered fat in the pan. Place the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate until later.
- Place the chopped potatoes and onions into the bacon fat in the skillet. Add the spices and toss the potatoes with the bacon fat and spices until coated.
- Cook the onions and potatoes, stirring occasionally, for 18 minutes. You're looking for crispy, browned sides and the potatoes are tender. You can top with a lid while it cooks for softer, not-as-crispy potatoes.
- Add the garlic and cooked bacon into the pan and cook for 2 minutes, stirring to incorporate the garlic and rewarm the bacon.
- Before serving, make sure the diced potatoes are fork-tender, otherwise cook for another 2-5 minutes.
- Place the fried potatoes and onions onto a serving platter and serve hot with chopped, fresh herbs.
Notes
- Storing: place the cooled leftover fried potatoes in an airtight container. Keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Reheating: To keep the potatoes crispy, reheat the leftover fried potatoes in a skillet with a bit of vegetable oil over medium heat until warmed through.
