UNCLE BILL'S FRIED POTATOES AND ONIONS
I remember my Grandmother making this marvelous dish over 65 years ago. We were the only vegetarians in our family and therefore Grandma cooked just to please me. A very easy, simple but tasty side dish. Young potatoes are especially good.

Steps:
- Peel and slice potatoes about 1/8 inch thick or thinner.
- Slice onion thinly.
- In a large frying pan on medium-high heat, melt butter, add olive oil.
- Add sliced potatoes and onions, cover and fry for 10 minutes. Using a spatula, turn the potatoes and onions over so they do not break apart. If potatoes appear too dry, add some additional butter.
- Sprinkle with granulated garlic powder, dried dill weed, salt and pepper and continue to fry with cover removed for another 5 minutes or until potatoes begin to turn slightly brown; turning occasionally.
- Serve hot with your meal.
- Note: You may use 2 or 3 large garlic cloves (chopped small), instead of granulated garlic powder. Add to the potatoes after the first 10 minutes of cooking time.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes for the job. Yukon Gold and Russet potatoes are good choices for frying.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces so that they cook evenly.
- Soak the potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes before frying. This will help to remove excess starch and prevent the potatoes from sticking together.
- Dry the potatoes thoroughly before coating them in flour. This will help the flour to adhere to the potatoes.
- Use a light hand when coating the potatoes in flour. Too much flour will make the potatoes gummy.
- Heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the potatoes. The oil should be hot enough to fry the potatoes quickly without burning them.
- Fry the potatoes in small batches so that they don't overcrowd the pan. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Don't stir the potatoes too much while they are frying. This will break them up and make them mushy.
- Drain the potatoes on paper towels before serving. This will help to remove excess oil.
Conclusion:
Uncle Bill's Coated and Deep Fried Potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a plate of crispy, golden-brown potatoes that will be the hit of your next meal.
