Step 1

Cube the onion and the bacon.

Step 2

Heat 1 tbsp clarified butter in the frying pan and start frying the bacon, then add the onion and fry until the onion is translucent. (Make sure that the onion does not burn, as this will leave a bitter taste).

Step 3

Remove both from the pan and set aside.

Step 4

Peel the potatoes (optional) and slice into 0.5 cm thick slices. Melt the remaining tablespoons of clarified butter in the pan and fry the potatoes on medium heat until crispy. Do not turn them too soon, give each side about 3-4 minutes before turning. When adding the potatoes to the frying pan, make sure that each potato has space in the pan. This will ensure that they fry evenly. If your pan is too small to fry all the potatoes at once, then fry them in batches.

Step 5

Do not stir the potatoes but carefully turn them individually.

Step 6

After approximately 20 minutes add the onions and bacon and fry for a further 2 minutes while carefully turning with a spatula.

Step 7

Season with salt and pepper. Before serving, mix in the chopped parsley.

Step 8
