Low Sodium Home Fries
Servings
2Serving size
about 1 cupThis recipe can be multiplied but does not make very good leftovers.
Ingredients
| 8 ounces Red potatoes (diced) |
| 1 spray as needed Spray olive oil |
| 1 small White or yellow onions (diced) |
| 1/8 tsp. Salt |
| 1 dash Black pepper (to taste) |
Instructions
Place a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Spray lightly with oil and when the pan is hot add the diced onion. Cook, tossing frequently, until the onions begin to turn a light brown.
While the onions are cooking repeat the first step with the potatoes twice. Cook them for one minute on high, remove the bowl, stir and let rest in between each minute of cooking about 3 minutes.
When the onions have browned add the potatoes, salt and pepper to the pan. Spray lightly with oil one more time and toss the home fries until the potatoes are lightly browned.

Recipe Notes
Home fries from a restaurant can be really greasy, and that’s so unnecessary.
Using the spray olive oil and lightly caramelizing the onions and adding the potatoes that have been slightly precooked makes great, healthy home fries. The natural starch in both the onions and potatoes is enough to bind them together slightly. By pre-cooking the potatoes briefly, the home fries don’t have to cook too long to be soft on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside. These aren’t just for breakfast.
