Dressed up Fried Potatoes

I got this recipe from my friendly bartender at the pub I frequented in Seoul. His were latka style potatoes, but mine didn't turn out that way. LOL Regardless, I found a great way to make some very tasty fried potatoes. Cooking time does not include cooling potatoes in the fridge.

• Ready In: 1 hr
• Serves: 6-8

Ingredients

• 6  baking (or your favorite kind of potato) potatoes
• 1  large onion, chopped
• 1  cup fresh mushrooms, chopped
• 6  slices bacon, cut into small bite sized pieces before frying
•  salt and pepper

Directions

1. Boil potatoes with skin on until tender.
2. Drain and place in fridge until completely cool, about 2-3 hours.
3. When they are somewhat cooled, you can cut them into thirds to speed up cooling process.
4. Chop onions and mushrooms in food processor.
5. Once the potatoes are completely cool, either put through rice mill or shred in food processor.
6. Using scissors, cut bacon into small bite sized pieces, fry til almost crisp in a deep non-stick skillet.
7. Without removing bacon or the fat, add onions and mushrooms, mixing well and cook til translucent.
8. Add shredded potatoes and fry, stirring frequently until heated through.
9. Cooking time does not include cooling potatoes in the fridge.
