Oven made German potatoes recipe

Cheers to Christopher Columbus who discovered America in 1492! He helped us to know the sweet and rounded potatoes, a constant presence in our European cuisine.

There are a couple of ways to cook German potatoes but the following one is lighter and digestible.

Ingredients for the German potatoes

• 500 grams of potatoes;
• 300 grams of onions;
• 150 gr bacon;
• salt (to taste);
• extra virgin olive oil;
• 1 egg.

Preparation of the German potatoes

Turn on the oven at 190 ° C; in the meanwhile wash, peel and cut the potatoes in dices, cut onions into thin slices and cut the bacon into small cubes (or dice it, as I did).

Put in a baking pan the potatoes, the onions and the chopped bacon, mix well and add some salt and oil.

Put the baking pan into the oven and cook for about 40 minutes.

Remove the baking pan from the oven, stir in a beaten egg, put again the baking pan in the oven and cook it for another 5 minutes.

Then turn off the oven, remove the baking pan from it and leave to cool for a little bit.

The German potatoes are ready!
