“I'll try with the 1/3 cup oil next time as suggested by another commenter. I used a half cup of avocado oil and it came out great, but I also cooked the potatoes and onions mostly the night before, put it in the fridge, and finished in the am. Because of this ” — a cook, 5.0★
“This recipe turned out amazingly! I feel like it would be sooo good with a drizzle or side of spicy marinara sauce. I started out frying the diced potato, but felt like it was tough to brown evenly on all sides. So after about 7 min I popped the potatoes in” — a cook, 5.0★
