Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 45 minutes

Total time: 1 hour

Servings: 4 people

Ingredients:

• 7 potatoes (medium size)

• 1 white onion

• 400ml extra-virgin olive oil

• 6 eggs (medium size)

Instructions:

1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin slices. Also, peel and chop the onion.

2. Heat the 400ml extra-virgin olive oil in a large frying pan and add the onion. Once the onion is softened, add the potatoes. Stirring occasionally until the potatoes are softened too. Strain the potatoes and onion through a colander into a large bowl (set the strained oil aside).
