Ingredients

• 1 kg Potatoes
• 2 medium Yellow onion
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika (optional)
• 1.5 liters Water

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into large chunks, roughly 4 cm in size.

Step 2

Fill a large pot with 1.5 liters of water, add about 1 teaspoon of salt, and bring to a boil.

Step 3

Add the potato chunks to the boiling water and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender but not falling apart. Drain and set aside.

Step 4

While the potatoes are boiling, peel and finely dice the yellow onions.

Step 5

In a large, deep skillet or pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.

Step 6

Add the diced onions to the skillet and sauté for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and golden.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low, and add the cooked potatoes to the skillet with the onions.

Step 8

Using a wooden spoon, gently mash some of the potatoes to create a mix of softened chunks and mashed texture.

Step 9

Sprinkle in the ground black pepper and paprika (if using), and adjust the salt to taste. Mix gently to combine all the flavors.

Step 10

Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the potatoes to absorb the flavors.

Step 11

Remove from heat and serve hot as a side dish with your favorite main course.
