Bratkartoffeln

So what could be better than sweet onions and potatoes cooked to perfection in bacon fat, and then bacon crumbled on top?  If this sounds amazing to you, then you should definitely check out Bratkartoffeln.  This is a german dish that I have loved for many many years.  And it is super easy to make.  With a few of the ingredients that I picked up at the farmer's market yesterday, this was one tasty dinner.  But you could make it as a side dish as well.

Ingredients
4 slices thick cut bacon(or your favorite)
1 med. sweet onion, chopped or sliced your favorite way
4-6 red potatoes, chopped or sliced your favorite way

Directions

In a large skillet, brown bacon until crispy and remove to paper towel to drain, leaving bacon fat in pan
Pour onions into skillet, letting them sweat in the bacon fat until soft
Pour potatoes on top of the onions, and cook down together until potatoes are soft
Before serving, crumble bacon and place back in skillet, giving all ingredients a good toss to combine.

Super easy, super tasty!  Give it a try and let me know what you think?
