Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (not extra virgin)
- 4 medium potatoes (peeled and sliced into β inch slices)
- 1 medium yellow onion (sliced into half moons)
- ΒΌ cup water (or stock)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced or crushed)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Β½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Method
- In a skillet heat olive oil over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the sliced potatoes and onions. Cover the skillet with a lid and let them cook. Check frequently and gently flip the potatoes to ensure they don't burn. Cook for about 8 minutes.
- Pour in the water or stock. Cover again with the lid and let the potatoes simmer.
- As the potatoes near completion, stir in the garlic, salt, and pepper. Continue cooking without the lid until the potatoes are fully cooked and the thinnest slices have a slightly mushy texture.
- Remove from heat. Serve the potatoes with toppings of your choice, such as fresh herbs, sour cream, or pesto.
