Step 1

Saute the sliced onions in the bacon grease or shortening until golden brown over a medium heat.

Step 2

Slice the potatoes very thin and layer on the smothered onions, careful to season with salt/pepper/garlic powder on each layer of potatoes.

Step 3

Stir often while cooking over a medium heat with a lid covering the skillet.

Step 4

As the potatoes soften, use the end of the spatula to mash and break the potatoes up. The onions will get browner and caramelize more! Enjoy.
