Skillet Potatoes with Chanterelles and Onion
Really easy to make, and the flavor and aroma are incredible. Give it a try! During mushroom season, potatoes fried with chanterelles and onion are one of the dishes I make most. I also freeze it for winter — either with the potatoes or just the fried mushrooms and onion on their own.
Cooking method

Step 1:
How do you fry chanterelles with potatoes and onion in a skillet? For this dish we'll use fresh mushrooms just gathered in the woods. Clean the fresh chanterelles and rinse them well under running water. Then cover them with water, bring to a boil, and simmer about 15 minutes, skimming off the foam as they cook. Drain in a colander, rinse again under the tap, and let all the water drain off.

Step 2:
Peel and rinse the onion. Chop it finely.
-
Step 3:
Heat a skillet and add vegetable oil. Fry the onion for a couple of minutes until lightly golden.
-
Step 4:
Add the boiled chanterelles to the onion. Keep frying everything together for about 5 minutes.
-
Step 5:
Meanwhile, peel and wash the potatoes. Cut them into matchsticks and rinse to wash off the excess starch — this keeps the potatoes from breaking apart as they fry.
-
Step 6:
Add the cut potatoes to the skillet with the mushrooms.
-
Step 7:
Stir everything well and cook, covered, for 15–20 minutes. Remember to stir it thoroughly now and then.

Step 8:
At the end, add salt and spices to taste. Serve the potatoes and chanterelles right away, hot. So good — enjoy!
- A great, hearty dish that stands on its own. Fried chanterelles with potatoes dress up any table — it's some of the tastiest, simplest late-summer and fall cooking, and a satisfying dish for any gathering. Make it for the family at dinner. Wild mushrooms are rich in plant protein, so they can stand in for meat entirely. You can also stock up on wild mushrooms for winter: boil them, drain them well, portion them into bags, and stash them in the freezer. When you're craving good mushrooms in the cold months, just thaw and use them. This works with any mushroom — you can even mix several kinds.
