WHAT YOU WILL NEED

First, peel and slice the onions into thin rounds (or half-moons). Meanwhile, heat a tablespoon of oil in a large frying pan/ large skillet.

STEP 1

Once hot, cook the onions in the pan over medium heat for around 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, to caramelize. Add spoonfuls of water (or broth) as needed.

STEP 2

Meanwhile, clean and slice the potatoes into ¼-inch slices (6-7mm) and transfer them to a large pot filled with cold salted water.

STEP 3

Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Then, reduce the heat to low-medium and allow the potatoes to simmer for 4-5 minutes. Then drain the water.

STEP 4

Heat 1 tbsp oil in the same skillet you used for the onions and add the cooked potatoes. Cook for about 10-15 minutes over medium heat, or until the potatoes are crisp and golden brown.

STEP 5

Once the potatoes are crisp/browned, add the caramelized onions back to the pan along with the spices, stir well, and cook for a further few minutes until everything is well warmed.
