Ingredients

• 4 medium Yellow potatoes
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 large Garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 cup Water
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut them into 1-inch cubes. There's no need to peel them if you prefer a rustic texture.

Step 2

Peel and thinly slice the yellow onion.

Step 3

Mince the garlic cloves finely.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat and add the butter and olive oil. Allow the butter to melt and blend with the oil for approximately 1 minute.

Step 5

Add the sliced onions to the skillet. Stir to coat them evenly in the butter and oil mixture. Cook the onions for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized and golden brown.

Step 6

Add the minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet. Cook for an additional 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the cubed potatoes to the skillet. Stir well so they are evenly coated with the onion and herb mixture.

Step 8

Season the potatoes with salt and black pepper. Stir to ensure the seasoning is distributed evenly.

Step 9

Pour the water into the skillet and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the potatoes cook for 20–25 minutes, stirring every 5–7 minutes, until they are fork-tender and the water has mostly evaporated.

Step 10

Remove the lid and turn the heat back to medium. Let the potatoes cook uncovered for another 3–4 minutes to develop a slight crisp on the edges.

Step 11

Finely chop the fresh parsley. Sprinkle it over the cooked potatoes as a garnish just before serving.

Step 12

Serve the savory onion potatoes warm as a side dish with your favorite main course.
