Bratkartoffeln is a popular dish in every German household. Yes, it is very difficult to pronounce (brat-kah-toff-len) translates as "fried potatoes" and it's indeed pan-fried potatoes, bacon, onions, and seasoning. I don't eat bacon, so I did it without most of the time. It will taste as great still. Another dish which will make you fall in love forever. Trust me, if it isn't making u love again, please ask me to buy u a drink! :P
Trust me, it is so easy to prepare and cook. JUST time consuming. Normally it takes me 1 hour to cook the potatoes. Slow cooking is the best!
Ingredients :
. MANY potatoes. I used 4kgs of Potatoes.
. A lot of FAT aka BUTTER. 1 to 1.5 blocks of unsalted butter
. 2 whole finely chopped onions
. Salt to taste
. Black pepper
You may also add some marjoram & chopped bacons.
Some nice tips:
- Potatoes can be cooked several hours ahead. You must boiled whole potatoes for 20 mins and not less. In fact, this dish is often made with leftover potatoes.
- In Germany, these potatoes are traditionally served with fried sunly side up eggs, pickles, and green salad.
- If you're using a nonstick pan, the potatoes will need a lot of butter to brown properly.
- Cook the potatoes on medium low fire after the onion turn golden. Turn/flip the potatoes slices gentlely and not as often but watch out, don't let them burn.
- If you are a vegan, use oil instead of butter.
- The potato slices will turn brownish and crispy on the edges. It means they are ready!
I learnt this dish from Oma- German Grandma of my kids. She is such a good cook. Eventhough I dont't speak German, I still managed to learn from her. Glad I did, my kids love this dish and miss their Deutsch homeland too.
Guten Appetit! Selamat Makan! Have a good meal!
