For tea tonight I'm making a bacon, onion and potato pan fry. Seasoned with lots of pepper and garlic and little salt this super easy dish is perfect with two fried eggs.
Slice some unpeeled potatoes into quarter of an inch rings.
Place in cold water.
Chop a couple of onions and snip into into small strips a few rashers of smoked back bacon.
Crush lots of garlic, I always use four or five cloves.
Heat some oil in a large frying pan.
Toss in the bacon and onion, swirl around then add the garlic continuing to swirl.
Add the drained potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and dot with your favourite spread.
Put a lid on, if you don't have a big lid, do as I do, and drag out a chopping board.
Cook very gently over a low heat till the potatoes are soft.
Every now and again give the mix a nudge to ensure the bacon and onion are not burning.
This is a lovely little meal and one I've been making for zillions of years. A Delia Smith recipe taken from her Frugal Cookbook.
I preferred Delia before she got too famous.
This morning has been pretty wonderful, while Mr Horsehound played at being a plumber (!) I played at being a baker.
Making a nice Gingercake and twenty-four Drop Scones. Felt so good, so therapeutic mixing and weighing and listening for the ping of the oven timer.
I recommend it.
That's it for now I need to nudge my spuds.
