Fried potatoes are a special thing in our family. Whoever's doing the cooking has their own recipe and their own little tricks, so the dish comes out different every time — but always delicious and always welcome! After all, frying potatoes is a real art. So, let's fry some potatoes! This recipe comes from my father-in-law, who always fried them in lard. He cut the potatoes into round coins and stirred them only a couple of times during the whole cooking. Heat the skillet. While it warms up, cut the lard into thin slices. Once the pan is hot, add the lard and fry it over high heat. As soon as it turns translucent and lightly golden, add the potatoes — sliced into those coins, as I mentioned — and the onion, cut into large rings. Salt? No — that comes almost at the very end. Don't forget to cover the potatoes with a lid, so they pile up high. Fry over medium heat, watching that they don't burn. After a while, turn off the heat and let the skillet sit on the stove a bit longer to finish. The potatoes come out soft yet crisp, and they hold together nicely. We then eat these potatoes with pickles!
