Ingredients
- 1/3 cup oil (vegetable oil)
- 3 pounds potatoes (peeled, sliced 1/4 inch thick, and cut into 1-inch squares)
- 8 ounces yellow onions, (1 1/2 cups, very finely chopped)
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
- 1 1/2 cups stock
- 1/2 cup green onion, tops only, finely chopped
How to Make
-
Step 1: Heat oil in a very large skillet over high heat for about 1 minute. Add potatoes, onions, salt, peppers and garlic, stirring well.
-
Step 2: Cook about 10 minutes. Each time mixture begins to brown and stick excessively, stir and scrape pan bottom well.
-
Step 3: Reduce heat to low and cook until mixture is mottled brown throughout, about 20 minutes, stirring and scraping only occasionally.
-
Step 4: Add 1/2 cup stock and scrape pan bottom well. Cook about 5 minutes, stirring only once or twice.
-
Step 5: Add 1/2 cup additional stock and cook another 5 minutes, stirring and scraping well, and breaking up about half of the potato pieces. Potatoes should be half creamed and half lumpy.
-
Step 6: Add remaining stock and green onions, stirring well. Cook about 5 minutes more, stirring and scraping occasionally.
