Homefried Potatoes

Description
Great with breakfast, especially on cold mornings.

Ingredients

 * 2 medium Potatoes, washed but not peeled
 * Enough water in a Saucepan to cover the Potatoes
 * 1 small white Onion, chopped
 * salt and ground Black Pepper to taste
 * Garlic Powder (optional)
 * Chili Powder (optional)
 * dried crushed Red Pepper (optional)

Directions

 * The secret to diner-style homefries is to boil the potatoes first; otherwise, the potatoes take too long to cook and never turn properly soft inside.
 * Wash the potatoes and cut them into two or three pieces apiece.
 * Cook them in water about twenty minutes, or until they're pretty soft.
 * Take them out of the water and allow the water on them to evaporate, then slice the potatoes into small chunks.


 * Fry the Onion in a few tablespoons of vegetable oil until it is tender.
 * Add the potatoes and fry at a medium-high heat until browned, about ten or fifteen minutes.
 * Add salt, pepper, garlic (optional) chili powder (optional) and hot pepper (optional) to taste.
 * Serve with breakfast as a side to eggs, pancakes, waffles, or even cereal; and garnish with ketchup, barbecue sauce, salsa, lightly fried tomato wedges, cilantro, or parsley, if desired.
