Brit's Cheesy Onion Home Fries image

This twist on a breakfast favorite comes from my daughter Brittany, who is a cheese and onion lover. Great for lunch and as a dinner side also!

Time 35m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large russet potatoes
4 tablespoons butter or 4 tablespoons canola oil, divided use
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided use
1 small onion, sliced thin
parsley (to garnish) (optional)

Steps:

  • Microwave potatoes as you would for a baked potato, but cook until*slightly* underdone- 4 take 12-14 minutes on my microwave (or use leftover baked/cooked potatoes).
  • When cool enough to handle, quarter potatoes and then cut into about 1 inch pieces (we leave the skins on).
  • Heat 2 tbl of butter or oil in a large non-stick skillet (or if you just cooked bacon in the pan, you can reserve some of the bacon grease and use that to fry in).
  • On medium heat, add onions and cook until 1 or 2 minutes before adding potatoes, salt and pepper, stirring to combine.
  • Let cook for a few minutes, flipping or stirring gently, until onions are tender and potatoes are to desired crispness.
  • If necessary, add additional butter or oil to prevent sticking.
  • Remove home fries from pan and transfer into microwavable casserole dish.
  • Sprinkle with one cup of cheese and fold in gently.
  • Sprinkle remaining cup of cheese on top and microwave for 1 to 2 minutes until cheese is melted.
  • Sprinkle a bit of parsley on top, if desired.

These were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the home fries turned out soggy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These home fries were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

I've made these home fries several times now and they always turn out great. They're a great way to use up leftover potatoes.
